Reflection on Technical Communication 1

When entering this course, my main goal was to improve my presentation skills and efficiency in writing a formal report. What I would have liked to achieve was a decent level of writing and presentation skills. Although the first trimester was quite a rush considering that technically communication takes time. I have acquired a lot of skill sets which can put to good use in the near future. Not only was I able to gain valuable knowledge from our lecturer, but I was also able to adapt in this fast-paced environment to become more efficient and effective in planning my study schedules. I felt that most of my technical communication skills have improved significantly as most of my classmates, as well as my lecturer, were able to provide me detailed and descriptive feedback which allowed me to grow as a person. I believe that my communication skills have further improved a decent amount as our lecturer provides us many opportunities to work with other classmates. As for oral presentation

Importance Of Excellent Leadership Communication Skills

"Developing excellent communication skills is absolutely essential to effective leadership. The leader must be able to share knowledge and ideas to transmit a sense of urgency and enthusiasm to others. If a leader can't get a message across clearly and motivate others to act on it, then having a message doesn't even matter." Gilbert Amelio, President and CEO of National Semiconductor Corp Great communication skills allows oneself the capability to command others. A "leader" without a voice cannot be considered a leader as no one is willing to listen to him. Without his/her voice, the group that he/she is leading will naturally crumble.  For example, if I was a general commanding a army, and I didn't possess the capabilities to transfer all my knowledge and strategies to my troopers, my army would't know what to do when the actual war comes. My army would then be disorganised, some would run away, some would take matters in their own hands whil

Formal Self-Introduction Email

 Dear Professor Blackstone, It is a pleasure speaking with you. My name is Benjamin Shum, my purpose for writing this letter is to assist you in understanding me better. Having  graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a  Diploma in Electronics & Computer Engineering. My profession has always been working with electronic circuits in the micro-electronics department. Even since I was a primary school kid, I've always been intrigued with how technology functions, I genuinely enjoyed building and fixing objects as a hobby. Not to mention, I've always had a strong foundation in Mathematics and Science during my secondary school days. Thus it was relatively easy for me to comprehend engineering concepts. The transition from Electronic & Computer Engineering to Telematics was smooth for me due to the fact that most of the modules were similar. The reason why I decided to join Telematics is simple, I had a foundation for it, my interest and passion has always been in engin
