Task 3
1. Provide a brief overview of your understanding of your Energy Graph from the Learning Report, including two personal strengths and two personal challenges that relate to your working style.
Note: Consider discussing your intensity level (Extreme, Effortless, Deliberate, Stress) in your main dynamics—Explore, Excite, Examine, and Execute—and how they relate to your strengths and challenges.
2. Describe your experience(s) of conversations as they relate to the laws of conversation and the four levels of the conversation meter.
3. Discuss your strategies for being a successful student, including how you will incorporate your strengths and address your challenges.
In the first section you just want to include what energy dynamic you feel fits you best for all four working styles (example; effortless examine, effortless explore, deliberate plus excite, deliberate execute). Then you want to ensure that your strengths and weaknesses match the energy dynamics listed. The graders are looking to ensure you understand what each of these styles and intensities look like. Just remember:
a. Explore energy is often focused around idea generation (thinking outside the box, future thinkers, empathetic, etc.),
b. Excite energy is often focused around others (working with, motivating, and encouraging others etc.),
c. Examine energy often focuses on analyzation (logical, linear, organized, detail oriented, etc.),
d. Execute energy often focuses on getting things done (focused on point B, holds people accountable, persistent, etc.).
e. Note: You will need to include what energy intensities you are for all 4 working styles as well as two strengths and two weaknesses/challenges that correlate with your working styles.
f. Note: Make sure your working styles match your strengths and weaknesses presented.
2. Reflection on communication: You will want to include a personal conversation that illustrates all 4 levels of the conversation meter. You want to make sure you use the conversation to discuss all four levels of the conversation meter (pretense, sincerity, accuracy and authenticity). For instance you might discuss a conversation you experienced when someone was in pretense and someone was in sincerity and then discuss how you could have moved that conversation up the meter to accuracy and then to authenticity (make sure you relate how you could have used both accuracy and authenticity in the conversation you chose to add value). You will also want to talk about the Laws of Conversation (mention it by name). Specifically discuss how you could have incorporated listening for needs, purposes, and concerns in that specific situation to create value in the conversation.
