Interpersonal Communication

Order Description

Read  Chapter 5 from the book: Applying Communication Theory for Professional Life: A Practical Introduction – 3rd Edition. Then based ONLY in that chapter of the book, answer the last questions of the chapter using simple English vocabulary and in a form of question and answer:

– Explain Lily’s face needs and how they have shifted throughout the case. Did she follow PT’s predictions when initially confronted by Mia? Use PT to explain Lily’s interaction with Ben.

– Use SET to assess the rewards and costs associated with the friendship. Then predict whether or not Mia and Lily will remain good friends if Mia is terminated. What conditions, if any, would change your prediction?

-Identify the internal and external dialectics that appear in the story. What strategies were used to manage these tensions? What strategies might have been better?

– What private information and privacy rules exist in this story? How did Lily and Mia develop boundary coordination to separate their work and personal lives? What boundary turbulence does Lily experience?

– Which theory alone seems to provide the “best” explanation for the situation? Why do you believe this to be the case? What situations might surface that would make a different theory or theories better at explaining the situation? How could you combine several theories to make for an even “better” explanation of the relationships?

UNIT V—Interpersonal Communication: You are the director for your organization’s

financial department. You received the following message below from several managers, all

members of one of its key committees:

As you know, Terry is chair of our department’s restructuring committee. We all like Terry

and think he’s a nice guy, but his meetings are insufferable. If you ask Terry a simple question, he

responds with a rambling five-minute answer that only eventually addresses the question—and then goes

on and on. Time seems irrelevant to him. A meeting with three agenda items takes two hours, and many of

Terry’s points could be better addressed in a simple email.

A few members of the committee are fine with Terry’s meetings, but the rest of us have other work

to do. We don’t dare ask him questions or open items to discussion anymore because we know will be

there for the rest of the day. While we don’t want Terry to get in trouble, something needs to be done

about his meetings.

Terry, indeed, is a valued member of the department, which is why he was chosen to chair

this important committee. His unwavering dedication and track record of getting work done

without error are what impress you most. But his long-winded approach may be silencing

members of the committee that is seeking input from all its members. Therefore, you’ve

decided to share with Terry tips on ways to make meetings more streamlined. In two or three paragraphs, explain to Terry how he can do that
