Communication Apprehension Video Presentation
Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum, read Chapter 5 of Making Connections: Understanding Interpersonal Communication
One of the most frustrating challenges and barriers to effective interpersonal communication at work is communication apprehension. However, there are ways to overcome this challenge. In this discussion forum, you will be required to record a 2.5- to 3-minute video using the Canvas video tool or upload an .mp4 file using an external tool. Please do not insert a link to your video. In the video you will explain communication apprehension and then one apprehension you have experienced in the past at work. If you have limited, or no, work experience, consider discussing communication apprehension you have experienced in your personal life. You will then discuss some strategies from Bevan (2020) and Abrahams (2018) that you can use to overcome your fear(s).
