Write You - Constructive Group Dynamics: How to Go from the S.N.I.P.P.Y. Syndrome to a C.L.E.A.R. V.I.E.W.
Just any ordinary person off the street could not become a virtual assistant one day, there is training that is needed to pull off the full responsibilities that could be asked of a virtual assistant. Usually a business that goes to hire a virtual assistant would like them have at least 5 years of office or business experience.What Things Might I Learn In Virtual Assistant Training?In order to go through the training to become a virtual assistant they ask that you have 5 years of administrative experience, some know
The key components of the interaction cycle include:
a. Values/Expectations/Mindset: these form our initial impressions.
b. Selective Perception: a filtering function that only lets in what matches our initial impressions.
c. Feelings: a range of negative to positive thoughts triggered by our perceptions.
d. Action: our feelings ultimately influence our behaviors.
e. Reaction: others respond to us by the way we act, so their behavior is in fact the resu
What is the significance of your having become a physician and how does it relate to your "destiny" or "soul path?"For many of coaching clients, the reason we are working together is because their "professional" life has taken a significant turn---or is about to. In other words, they are either: a) questioning whether the professional road they're on is one they want to stay on, or b) they are already embarking on a "new road" and we're navigating the bumps, or c)
Coming from a background of 20 years in the corporate world, I can readily identify with attending a surplus of meetings. Additionally, I know all too well how employees come to "dread" going to meetings and clearly I fell into that category as well. But now in retrospect, I've come to learn a few things, as we often do once we step back and reflect. After reading this article, you'll have a better understanding of what causes meetings to break down-- (S.N.I.P.P.Y) syndrome and an alternative (C.L.E.A.R. V.I.E.W.).
See if you can relate to any of the following statements:
1. Look, I've invested a lot of time on this idea and
if we can't move on it, I'll have wasted my time. Self-serving
2. We never get anything done in this meeting, anyway. Negativity
3. We have to enforce this policy so people know right
from wrong. Insisting
4. Can you believe how domineering she is in these
meetings--who hired her, anyway? Provoking
5. Given our roles in the company, I think it's
obvious
that I should make the final decision. Power driven
6. If you would let others speak once in a while, it
would
be helpful. You statement
As human beings, it's easy for all of us to fall into any of these behaviors from time to time. What's more problematic however, is being unaware of our behavior and the effect we have on others in the workplace. As we know, like the "common cold," our attitudes can be contagious. The reason for this is something called the interaction cycle. The interaction cycle addresses how we interact with others and this impacts the quality of our relationships.

It all started out with an email message: "I am starting a new one of a kind company ... at least I think I'm one of a kind ... how do I find out who else out there might have beat me to the punch? And how do I build a web page to advertise my hopefully one of kind new business?" This is a rather vague question but I'll try to be as helpful as possible with my answer. First off, I have to say that as a management consultant, I am always leery of people who think that they have no competition. With few exceptions, i

Maybe you started your own business selling a cool product or offering a service that you just knew people needed. You are happy to be rid of your corporate job, or tired of working for peanuts at a dead end job and you look forward to people knocking down your door to get what you are offering. In your head you are counting all the money you will be earning.Very soon you realize that the hoards are not crowding through your door, so you have to do something called "marketing

What is Portland Cement? Portland cement (PC) is the principal binder that, upon hydration and setting, holds aggregates (coarse and fine) together in concrete. It has the ability to stand in water and increase its strength over time. This ability elicits the term hydraulic cement for this type of cement.What is the Composition of PC? PC is a manufactured product formed within narrow confines of specific elements and subjected to heat treatment to form a semi-finished product called clinker. Raw m

China standard of living has been levered up exponentially over the years that it’s now the one of the top few economies in the world. Through the decades, the standard living of China has been rising and consumers are changing their needs and wants. The Chinese no longer seek for basic needs such as food and shelter According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, higher standard of living has fulfilled Biological and Physiological needs of the consumers thus the Chinese are moving up the level and demanding more compared to the past.e interact with others and this impacts the quality of our relationships.

e. Reaction: others respond to us by the way we act, so their behavior is in fact the result of what we send out.
What we know then is that behavior breeds behavior. Now, it's starting to make some sense as to why we and others act as we do. But, the more critical issue is figuring out what can be done.
This brings us to a C.L.E.A.R. V.I.E.W. which is as follows:
C = Concentrate on the listener
L = Listen with the goal of understanding
E = Eliminate judgmental attitudes
A = Actively listen (paraphrase what you believe someone said)
R = Respect differences
V = Value input offered by others
I = I messages (describing someone's behavior and its effect on you)
E = Encourage participation from others
W = Work towards agreement (build on what others say and then add your input)
Wouldn't you rather have a C.L.E.A.R. V.I.E.W. than the S.N.I.P.P.Y. syndrome? Change is a gradual process; however with increased insight and the right tools, we can all make a contribution towards constructive group dynamics.
After all, why dread something that we could ultimately look forward to?
