Intent vs. Impact Did your behavior affect your ability to carry out the University or College mission?

Intent vs. Impact When communicating, the impact should match up with the intent. We should maintain positive communication by understanding the other person’s point of view by listening to what he/she is saying, and seeing what his/her body language is conveying.
