    The writing skills and techniques learned in my Essentials of Managerial Communication class can and will benefit me in my future classes as well as in my career in many ways. A few of the skills learned are including, but not limited to the appropriate ways of communicating depending on the audience, e-mail and business letter writing etiquette and also the importance of unbiased speaking in the workplace. It is important to have been taught these skills as I now know that there are many changes that need to be made to my future business plan and even in my current work day. I can use the skills that I was taught to give efficient business lectures and presentations. The class also taught me the importance of appropriate introductions and closing. Within this lesson I learned that every presentation should be altered based on the type of audience to whom it will be presented to as a presenter can easily lose his or her audience if the presentation is not created specifically for that audience.…

    Currently I am a senior level 4 nursing student. With being a nursing student it requires many communication skills verbal and non-verbal.

    In the Business Communication module, I was expecting to learn a good communication skill from it before embarking on the assignment. It is vital to have the fluent communication skill with the world regardless facing to anyone. Communication skills are very important since every day in our life we need to communicate with different kinds of people around us. Besides that, having a good communication skill can improve and make good relationships with them. If we can effectively communicate, then other people know what we need and want, and we can let them know our feelings without being misunderstood. This prevents arguments, because it avoids all that “you should have known how I felt” sort of mind-reading arguments. If we can explain our thoughts and feelings, then we won't misunderstand each other.…
