VERBAL COMMUNICATION
Due Week 10, worth 220 points
From quick conversations to phone calls, meetings, formal presentations, and
sales pitches, you must employ effective verbal communication skills at all
times. While verbal interactions are extremely common, they can also be
stressful. Every interaction contains the potential for success...and the danger
of failure. To be “on your game” at all times requires purposeful practice,
reflection, and adjustment based on input and feedback. No matter what your
verbal communication skills are, you can improve them.
In this assignment, you will develop and deliver a verbal communication for the
scenario you have identified. Your communication should match your challenge
or opportunity. For example, if your challenge is an interview for a new position,
you may choose to record yourself answering a few key questions that might
be posed by the interviewer.
For the purposes of this course, your video presentation should not exceed five
minutes. (Your scenario might require a much longer presentation, but limit
your response to the key five minutes in this case.)
INSTRUCTIONS
For Part 1, create and deliver a verbal communication (recording your
presentation for submission to your instructor) that aligns with your Strategic
Communication Plan.
