My interesting YouTube video!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reVsagoJEmo

  I choose this YOUTUBE video about nail design because I LOVE MY NAILS. Even though I am a "secretary" and a student, does not mean that I can not have my NAILS. My nails are reasonable in length, and I love to keep a design on them! I thought this video was very interesting and seemed to be simple enough even for me to do and maybe save me some money! Thanks!

WE #6 - Communication

Communication is the key to make anything a success, whether it is in a personal or business setting. Communication can be verbal (written, spoken) or non-verbal (actions). How a person communicates often defines what type of person they are--outgoing, leader, follower, team player, etc. As a supervisor your communication skills must be great in order to give directions to your employees, and to have the ability to listen and solve problems. I know for after working in a prison for years, communication was the key to us (officers) having a safe day. However, if a situation did occur, we would always look to our Supervisor to give us the tasks that they needed to be done and done correctly!

Chapter 10: Blog Post-Global Communication

“How do I currently use my global communication skills, and what skills can I improve?”...Honestly I do not think that I use a lot of global communication skills. My job only requires emails, and telephone calls within the Department where I work. I do not speak to anyone that is not already familiar with the daily operations of the Department. I think that I would have to practice and improve greatly on all my communication skills!

Social Media Lawsuit

http://isthatlegal.jdsupra.com/post/64983781426/5-lawsuits-at-the-collision-of-social-media-and

The social media lawsuits that I read about mainly involved Facebook and posting of pictures and "thoughts." A company was in a case dealing with an customer who posted angry vents about the company; another was where a Supervisor was fired about posting about dishonesty among employees. People need to realize that social media is truly the best and worst thing that has open in recent years. Many employees will search a person's social media sites in order to get a sense of the person. I think that everyone should be more mindful--that yes--other people will be looking at your post and pictures and basing judgment among you by them. To sue another person over a thought/opinion that was expressed on social media--I think is going a little too far. First Amendment does give us the right to freedom of speech.

WE #4 / Teamwork

Teamwork, is when two or more people come together with thoughts and ideas and complete a project. Working as a team will make a tasks seem a lot easier then having to work on it individually. Many supervisors will place a person who is a leader and can work well with others, as the "captain" when determining who is to do what on a project.

Verbal Communication

“Verbal communication skills are important for me to have as an administrative professional for the following reasons. . .”    

Verbal communication skills are important simply because we all have to communicate in order to get anything done. Communication is the KEY to all success--personal or business. Verbal communications are words that are spoken--and written. Listen is also a skill that goes along with communication skills.
