Sherwood Fleming Tone Of Voice

Oral Roberts discusses the importance of the voice of God through his testimonies. He shares that God speaks to everyone and not everyone can hear His voice. Oral shares seven reasons that he believes why God speaks to every person: God wants to communicate with man, man was created to communicate, the Bible is the evidence that God communicates with man directly, Jesus demonstrate how man can communicate with God, God will speak through the Holy Spirit, Oral’s parents taught him, and Oral himself heard the voice of God. Oral shares three things that God has spoken to him as an individual, but it will also impact other people: God called him “Son,” God told him what He was going to do for him, and “You

"Sometimes a Voice" by Don McKay describes the want to rise above a current state. The first stanza introduces this idea as a voice wanting to be more than a voice. The second stanza takes the idea even further and places the reader inside of a situation, almost like a story. Furthermore, figurative language is used constantly by McKay to help get this theme into the reader's head. Even in the first few lines, McKay employs vivid imagery and personification to heighten the effect. The voice "wants not to be voice any longer,"(li. 2) He also describes how a voice "will hearken back to breath, or even farther" (li. 6) and is sometimes "a flight path still looking for its bird" (li. 8-9).

I do believe there are differentials in interviewing gender, culture and religious beliefs. In many cultures it can be known to make eye contact with someone as disrespect. Body language can also have different meanings within different cultures. For each of these this is where we listen before we take actions, we can verbal and nonverbal offend someone. No two cultures are the same and no two people are the

Cultures provide people several ways of thinking and opinions. When it comes communicating the potential for misunderstandings increase dramatically because translations between languages. Most cultures have their own constricted rules about what is proper communication which affect verbal and nonverbal communication. Sometimes by simply not looking at a person eye to eye has a significant impact on how a different cultural per son will receive it. There a several rules to communication which differ from culture to culture and can be sometime wrongly

Cultural differences are present wherever you travel to, you will come across cultural differences, and these can vary quite a bit, such as the language people use e.g. English people say "Chips" compared to Americans who say "Fries”. A businessman may find himself in the middle of cultural differences quite often and thus, will have to devise methods as to how to make sure no one is offended or that he is fully understood. Certain methods he would use to overcome such issues are greeting people on a last name basis. Also refraining on using most signed gestures, as they can vary in meaning quite greatly, for example, the English gesture to say

• Cultural differences – when the same thing means different things in two cultures, communication can be difficult. For example, it is seen as polite and respectful to make eye contact when speaking to someone in Western culture but in other cultures, for example in East Asia, it can be seen as rude and defiant.

Humans have several ways of communicating with one another, whether that is written, spoken, facial expressions, or through body language. We use all of these forms all the time, it would be impossible to live a day without speaking, writing or reading, making facial expressions, or using any body language to communicate with others. While all these forms of communication are commonly known, another form, not as intuitively obvious, is silence. Like all forms of communication, silence will change with reference to different cultures. Just as different cultures speak differently or have different languages, and have different body languages, cultures also have different meanings behind silence. Native American cultures have been described as reluctant to speak or lacking in personal warmth simply because their culture views silence differently than most Americans. Apaches use silence for situations of uncertainty and unpredictability, Americans prefer that silence does not happen at all but will accept it for situations of comfort or in some cases when they want to avoid small talk with strangers. These difference in the use of silences are simply due to the cultural differences between Apaches and Americans. As Apaches’ use of silence reflects their cultural values of recognition and respect, Americans use, or lack of use, of silence reflects their cultural values of directness and urgency.

     In business, successful communication is the key to success, and being able to relate to a customer is the best form of communication. This is why cross-cultural communication is so important as the business world continues to globalize itself. Unfortunately, “A lack of awareness about the culturally prescribed rules and norms of communication behaviors can cause public relations projects to fail, or worse, backfire.” (Zaharna, 2001, p.135).

All participants in a conversation seek to respect the stature of each participant and avoid embarrassment to anyone involved. In Chinese business settings, the concept of “face” means being particularly careful to

A difference in culture creates many challenges for American companies trying to break into foreign markets. How you view situations is shaped by culture and experiences, which differ wildly among people; and so, it becomes easy for misunderstandings to occur between people who have differing cultures. In many Asian cultures, those whose speak directly are considered to lack sophistication and subtlety. However, in American culture being direct and clearly stating what you mean is considered the norm. By being aware of these differences in perception, you can more easily navigate relationships and deal with people from across the globe (Rivers & Lytle, 2007).

There are eight key forms of nonverbal communications used on a daily basis. These forms can affect the way people view another person; however, without understanding the forms of nonverbal communication there is certain to be a lot of misinterpretations. Cultural and language differences are a common reason for miscommunication. When communicating with people in different cultures, a person should be extremely aware of the hand gestures and nonverbal communication tools they are using. Many of the hand gestures used in the United States that mean good things, mean offensive and profane things to other cultures. Nonverbal communication is described as body language, hand gestures, and facial expressions. It is known that people reveal more information through nonverbal communication, than words alone to get a point across. There will always be some interaction between two or more people that everyone’s

Psychology is defined by Merriam-Webster, as the science of mind and behavior. It is a study of how an individual's psyche can be created, developed, altered or destroyed. Carol Gilligan, a Harvard Graduate School professor, for many years has analyzed the psychological theory and development, specifically in a book entitled In A Different Voice.

The importance of understanding cultural, ethnic and gender differences by managers and professionals in a business setting is essential to make the work environment comfortable. In every culture there are basic standards of thinking, and acting and these cultural differences strongly influence workplace values and communication. What may be considered acceptable and natural in the workplace for one person may be unacceptable for another person. People from diverse cultures bring new ways of thinking, creativity and language skills needed to survive in today’s work force. In many

Many corporate are now conducting training on cross-cultural communication for their workforce. In the US, opinions of cultural experts are invited before taking a judicial decision. In short, every person or organization can make small steps to minimize this
