My score was 13 out of 15. I learned about a lot of things that you are able to do in the business world. I would improve my skills by going to business meetings and learning more about the business world. I did pretty well on my quiz so I kind of know what is going on with the businesses.

Kheigan, I do think you should try not talking so angerly when someone makes you upset. I think you should try to not get angered.

Kheigan - I honestly didn't know the zipper one either. I think that was a pretty interesting thing that most people don't think about in the business world. I think that the more you communicate the better you will conversate with people.
Savannah

My score was 10 out of 15. I learned that you should stand three feet apart from the person you are talking to. I can be more polite and I have a lot of things I could improve on. I got a good score on the test so I think my skills are basic.
Savannah
10/5/2011 01:39:54 pm
Steven- I also got 10 out of 15. I thought it was also interesting that it didn’t matter who put their hand out first. I new that you don’t send personal things in a email. I had similar thoughts on this test.
Savannah
10/5/2011 01:43:14 pm
Katelin- You did better than me on the test but I also wrote about how far apart you are supposed to stand from the person you are talking to. I did not know you had to stand that distance from each other.

My score was 15 out of 15 meaning I got a 93.3 percent.
Shaylyn

Katelin- I agree I did not know the whole zipper thing and it kind of shocked me. You are very loud sometimes but that is not always a bad thing if you can just learn when to be loud like in a big crowd then I think it will help you a lot.:)
Shaylyn

Memo- I think that your communication is good but when you are in front of a big group you tend to get nervous and then you stutter and say umm. A lot. I think that if you just practice and don’t get so nervous to talk in front of people then you will do great. J

1. After taking the test I got a 13 out of 15.
Cole

I took the quiz and learned that I didn’t know very much about that I got 8 out of 15. There were many things that I didn’t know that I should have. I learned that there is lots of stuff I need to while I am communicating, I need to work on some things. I need to be more polite to people when they are talking and when I am talking. I tend to start talking when someone else is talking. I also need to maybe open the door for ladies when they want to come through, I also should let them go through first.
Kyle
10/6/2011 04:57:56 am
Shaylyn- I do agree with you I didn’t know about the zipper question either. How did you get 15 out of 15 and get a 93.3% isn’t it a 100%? I could also improve on talking in front of big groups to, I don’t do to well in that.

Savannah- you are very polite. I do think you should try to not be sarcastic.

The number I got was 10-15. I probably will send a thank you note to a client I met last week. I would never forget to call the office and tell them I will be late. I will be careful not to act smug around others. I don’t brag I help others in a team effort. I will by being smart and lessoning to my boss and make sure I don’t get on their bad side so I don’t get into trouble and get fired. I could help others to the best of my abilities and if I need to work as a team to get something done. I could work on my communicating skills it would help if I know how to talk to people the right way.

Steven- I always thought that the man always puts out his hand first. I also got 10-15 that is some funny stuff
Daniel
10/6/2011 10:31:49 am
Cole- Every time I talk to you you are polite but if you think you need a little improvement. Well more power to you. I think opening the doors for ladies is a good idea especially for you know who.

Cole i think you have been very honest with what you said, but why sell your self short. I mean every one has made those mistakes and done they consistently so i encourage you to keep at your goals in correcting your self.

Shaylyn –Boys don’t get really embarrassed when you tell them that their zipper is undone, it is a good idea to pull them to the side and tell them.
Cole
10/7/2011 04:44:43 am
Tyson – I think you do very well when are talking to me, but if you think you can do better go ahead and work on it.
Tyson
10/7/2011 09:33:30 am
Kyle- We both got the some score. I didn't know that you were supposed to tell someone that there barn door is open either.
Tyson
10/7/2011 09:35:31 am
Kheigan- We both got the same grade. We both also did good on the quiz too. Yes you do need to keep working on your business skills too.

Kyle, you didn't know that you should turn off your phone during a meeting. Mr. LaMunyan keeps tell you to turn off your phone during class that is almost the same thing as having it on during a meeting. Didn't you phone get taken away by him?
Jonathan

Cole, did you miss the question that said if you are talking to someone you should be three feet away. I didn't know that and I missed it. Comments are closed.
