Click “Write It” to respond to one of the writing prompts below by writing three paragraphs. Use what you have saved in your “My Work” folder to help you.
- Think about an argument you have had recently. What did the other person want? Did you really find out? Did you get someone who was angry and upset to calm down and cooperate? How would better listening skills have helped you? To write your answer, describe what happened in the first paragraph. In the second paragraph, explain how the incident was resolved or why it was not resolved. Finally, write a paragraph about what you could have done differently to make the situation better.

- The soft skill of communicating well with people may seem simple, but is a lot of effort involved. Do you know anybody who communicates well? Think about what traits they have. Are they patient? Do they know how to listen? Do they ask a lot of questions? For your answer, write a paragraph about this person and what makes him or her a good communicator. For your second paragraph, describe how you could improve your own communication skills. In the final paragraph, describe other soft skills you could improve to help you make a good impression at work.
