Discussion on Summary of Normative Communication Styles and Values

Since I was taken a physical course, which is organizational behavior, I chose this article to make some discussion about communication and the relationship between different organizations.
            Actually, the organizational behavior is kind of talking about how to work in an organization and do well, which is emphasis the leadership and initiative communication are really important. Beyond our big topic this quarter, different tribes might need to communicate sometime, but the difficulties of their attitude on communicating with others or some kind personal problems block their information exchange, spirit interflow and culture sharing.
            In the reading, there's a good example of disability people's communication problems. Some of them have communication barriers like speaking or cannot able to given eye contacts with normal people. When normal people tried to speak with them, we should avoid to ask disrespect questions or even laugh at those people. This kind of behaviors should called politeness, which is the manners people know because of morality.
            The Summary of Normative Communication Styles and Values chart is really helpful on analyzing the differences between ethnic groups, in order to see the invisible differences and difficulties in communication style and values. As a self assessment, I think it's working on tell ourselves what kind of communication styles or patterns we are, and the purpose of analyzing ourselves is finding the right way to fit in the larger groups to communicate with more people.
