Introduction In the class, I was given an elaborate overview of interpersonal relationships. I was taught about the different impacts of interpersonal relations on an individual and how these can determine his personality, quality of lifestyle and the status of his relations with those related to him personally and professionally. I was also given an idea about human communication, the chief features of human communication and its major determinants. The class also gave me an idea on how can I identify the strengths and weaknesses of my personal interpersonal relationships and how can I implement ways that can rectify my weaknesses and help me in redesigning my personality. I believe that the class notes will be of immense help in the personal as well as professional aspects of my life.
Interpersonal Dimensions
i) Strength After going through the class lectures and notes, I have analyzed that my interpersonal effectiveness lies in the fact that I am a great provider of feedback. The way in which I deliver my instructions and the way I train my teammates to function as per the instructions have always proved successful. Thus, I believe that I have the basic skills of a good team leader and qualities to mould my teammates to agree upon one common goal and one universal idea by virtue of my verbal skills. I am well aware of the fact that the basic skills of a good speaker is to be concise and clear while delivering instructions and stick to time frame, and most importantly, stick to the verbal deliverables that have relevancy with the topic that needs to be talked about (Memorial University Of Newfoundland, 2004). I keep these in my mind wherever I am assigned any task of delivering an instruction.
