Question

Discuss three ways in which one's acceptance of responsibility can influence effective communication

Answer 1

Being responsible is owning up the possible consequences of your decision whether these consequences are right or wrong. Communication is a two way process wherein there is a messenger (one who talks) and receiver (one who listens). One of the ways that a person could be responsible is by saying ‘I’ in all the things he would say, instead of ‘we’. Example, ‘We don’t like the way you act a while ago.’ Change it to ‘I don’t like the way you act awhile ago’. Here, you are establishing ownership on the things you want to say to the person.  

Answer 2

When you take responsibility for something that lets adults know that you're starting to mature a little and their more willing to actually listen to what you're saying and they might ask your opinion on something that just a few years ago they wouldn't have because you we're still too immature.Now it can also cause a few problems with communication because if you don't watch what you're doing you'll spout off with the mouth and get into trouble trust me I know.
