So, where are we? We now know about ethos, pathos, and logos, the three basic elements of communication first identified by Aristotle. We are also working on improving our own communication skills through increasing our self-awareness of how we actually communication with others. And finally, we are starting to look at the role emotions play in how we relate to each other in both verbal and nonverbal ways. (for a larger overview of communication, be sure to check out my lecture in the Week 7 Content section).
With all that in mind, here is this week’s question:
Imagine you are part of a four person team charged with developing a complex, multi-variable market analysis for your hospital. All members of your team are basically at the same job level as you and your boss has not designated anyone as the official “Team Leader.” After your first meeting, everyone agrees on the general vision and purpose of the project, the primary tasks needed to be completed, and a six week time schedule.
After two weeks of work, one of the members of your team with an office right down the hall from yours has failed to produce anything. Another team member has a sick child and is starting to miss meetings and is seriously lagged in his overall participation in the project. He works virtually out of his home in Seattle, Washington.
What would you say to each of these team members about the project?
