8.2 The Supervisor- Employee Relationship

8.3 Supervisor Self-Assessment Exercise

8.4 Communication The biggest problem with communication is the illusion that it has been accomplished.

8.5 Video Presentation Classic Communication

8.6 Six Elements of a Good Communicator Having a strong self-concept Listening effectively Expressing clearly Handling anger Talking about yourself Owning problems

8.7 Self-Concept A strong self-concept is necessary for good communication If you treat workers with respect, you will help them improve their self-concept

8.8 Employees with a weak self-concept may have difficulty with: Talking to others Admitting they are wrong Showing feelings Accepting constructive criticism Speaking up

8.9 Forming the Self-Concept Treat workers with respect Demonstrate that you value what they say Show concern about them as individuals

8.10 Listening Effectively “We have two ears and only one tongue in order that we hear more and speak less.”

8.11 Listening with the “Third Ear” A good listener listens to the words and the meanings behind the words.

8.12 Improve Your Listening Skills by: Having a reason for listening Not judging what is said right away Resisting distractions Waiting and thinking before answering

8.13 Improve Your Listening Skills by: Repeating what the speaker said in your own words Seeking the important themes—real meanings of words Reflecting on content and searching for meaning Being ready to respond to the speaker’s comments

8.14 Active Listening Respect other person’s need to communicate Listen to what the person says Respond with a restatement of what you think the message means Speaker then verifies or corrects the message

8.15 Benefits of Active Listening Communication is easier and more accurate Listener can understand what speakers mean and how they feel about issues Acceptance is communicated and trust between people is increased Problem solving becomes easier

8.16 Tips for Active Listening Be careful not to change the speaker’s intended meaning with your restatement Don’t merely repeat the speaker’s statement Don’t use it if there’s no time to deal with the situation or speaker is asking only for facts Know when to stop using it by being sensitive to speaker’s nonverbal messages

8.17 Expressing Clearly Difficult to say what we mean and express how we feel Common mistake: assuming others know what we mean even when we’re unclear in our speech (“If it’s clear to me it must be clear to you.”) Important to make ourselves clear and to check our meaning with our listeners Need for our communications to show that we accept one another—avoiding responses that indicate non-acceptance

8.18 Typical Listener Responses 1) Ordering, Directing: “You have to…” 2) Warning, Threatening: “You’d better not…” 3) Preaching, Moralizing: “You ought to…” or “You shouldn’t…” 4) Advising, Giving Solutions: “Why don’t you….” 5) Lecturing, Informing: “Here are the facts…” 6) Evaluating, Blaming: “You’re wrong…”

8.19 Typical Listener Responses 7) Praising, Agreeing: “You’re right…” 8) Name-calling, Shaming: “You’re stupid…” 9) Interpreting, Analyzing: “What you need…” 10) Sympathizing, Supporting: “You’ll be okay…” 11) Question, Probing: “Why did you…” or “Why didn’t you…” 12) Withdrawing, Avoiding: “Let’s forget it…”

8.24 Expressing Emotions Be aware of your emotions Admit your emotions Own your emotions Investigate your emotions Express the emotions you are feeling Integrate your emotions with your intellect and will

8.25 Talking About Yourself Talking truthfully and fully about yourself is necessary for good communication The more we know about each other the better our communication will be The more supervisors learn about their workers the more they will understand what workers want from their jobs and how they want to be treated

8.26 Talking About Yourself Our ability to talk about ourselves shows a healthy personality. We must be able to tell others who we are before we can truly know who we are and act according to our true selves What keeps us from talking about ourselves? --Fear of not being accepted, liked, loved

8.27 Trust People are not likely to talk about themselves when they feel threatened The fear of opening up to others can be replaced with trust One person’s trust helps create trust in others Good communicators create an atmosphere of trust

8.28 Owning Problems Problems must be recognized and ownership must be identified Best person to solve a problem is the one who “owns” it Important role of supervisors is to deal with their own problems and help workers deal with theirs

8.29 Influencing Motivation Through Communication Workers who are treated with respect AND Are shown that they are valuable members of the organization WILL Respond in positive ways, and this will result in improved performance
