Explain the situation and how the misunderstanding occurred.

Effective Listening
Think about a misunderstanding you experienced as a result of poor listening skills. Explain the situation and how the misunderstanding occurred. Offer specific strategies to improve listening skills to prevent similar misunderstandings.
Modes of Communication
Consider all of the different communication channels that are available to health care leaders today, such as e-mail, text messages, phone, face-to-face, memos, and virtual meetings. Pick two different modes of communication and provide one situation where it would be appropriate to use that approach and one situation where it would be inappropriate to use that approach. For example, a text message would be appropriate to notify a coworker that you are running five minutes late to a meeting, but a text message would be inappropriate to notify an employee that his vacation request was denied. Why is it important for health care leaders to choose the right medium for a particular message?
