Communication Core Competencies

I had chosen Communications as my core competency because I believe I have shown major points if the communication aspect of the competency. The main idea of this project was to make a campaign video showing and telling why you believe your character best suits being president of the farm. My group had all contributed making the scene and poster for the project. Doing that we had asked each other questions on how to make the video and poster better and what we should add. My group members and I had responded greatly and made a great effort into making this project. When I or my fellow peers had an idea, we had listened and added or encouraged each other to give ideas. My partners had many ideas and we all made sure to listen but when someone’s idea didn’t benefit us as much as others, we politely denied them.

I myself am very outgoing and able to be comfortable to typically talk in all situations especially in groups. My partner and I would get off task from time to time due to some of the ideas we would share but for the most part, we were able to share points about the topic, like when we suggested making the other farm animals seem idiotic. When we were to get off task someone in the group would make sure we still have time to do the work in class together and stay organized to do the work. My partners and I are all pretty outgoing and are able to go up stage and present. We all contributed to the presentation part quite evenly and were all able to do it without hesitation.

As I said before me and my peers had all quite evenly contribute towards the presentation part. Even in the preparation phase, we all were able to do equal work and pull our own weight some did more than others, but it was fine. Earlier I had also said that we were to get off task and one of us would typically notice and make sure we get on task and have enough time to finish. I was a leader time to time but so were my partners, we all had to be a leader at some points of time. We were all pretty negotiable with our ideas, we would all give good ideas and were able to interpret our ideas.

My group and I would all receive the ideas in a good manner and were able to give ideas freely, doing so would let us all give feedback and build off of those ideas. These presentations and assignments had helped me in many ways. For example, to the presentation part of the assignment helped me boost my confidence even more, and the work part had helped me be more open to ideas due to how nice and open my partners were.
