This method discusses how our listening motivation is crippled when we adversely stereotype speakers
or topics. Relate the topic at hand to your own interests.
Look for common Ground
This property is the spice of speaking. You may fluctuate your voice and at the same time improve the
communication by considering the vocal fundamentals of rate, volume, force, pitch, and emphasis.
Variety
This is the method most widely used by effective speakers. It produces the greatest results when it is
based upon thorough preparation and plenty of practice. The speaker's only guide is usually a well-
constructed outline, planned idea by idea rather than word by word.
Extemporaneous
This component should be consistent with and not contradict accompanying words. When these are
grossly inappropriate or contradictory, communication can permanently damage healthy relationships.
Nonverbals
This process works to maintain or improve effectiveness through guidance and recommendations. It is
also directed at helping a subordinate through a tough, personal situation, or to help set professional
goals and future plans
Counseling
This process includes recording the root cause, creating plans, as well as follow-up actions if necessary.
Session
This commander organizes commands and forces. Additionally, they employ forces within that
command to carry out assigned missions.
