In class, we learnt about four different styles of communication which are action oriented, process oriented, people oriented, and idea oriented.
I think the communication style that I fit into the most is being people oriented. People oriented communication is where people talk about relationships between individuals, needs, awareness, feelings, and valuing team spirit. I highly value the human connection I get when communicating with others. I also enjoy the idea of working in teams. When I am put into a group, I always try my best to establish a team spirit because I believe that when a team spirit is establish, a common goal is as well, the group as a whole would be more motivated to achieve the best they can and the group can be more effective when trying to reach their goals.
However, I feel like my style of communication also fits into the action oriented category because I am a very driven person with a strong personality. I like to be given a clear set of objectives and I enjoy carrying out my responsibilities efficiently. One of the best parts about working in teams for me is when every individual member carries out their responsibilities and we are able to see clear results.
