Communication

When thinking of someone who has competent communication, I picture Oprah Winfrey. When ever she does an interview she engages the interviewee as well as the audience.  She relates to the interviewee as they are conversing and shares personal experiences to create a more personal and intimate conversation.  As she listens she acknowledges what the person is saying and repeats back to them in her own words what they have expressed.  All of these behaviors make her an excellent communicator, and the fact that she has her own show where she strictly communicates with others one on one also exemplifies her excellence. Comparing my communication skills I can improve by modeling some of these very same behaviors.  I believe Oprah is a perfect role model for learning good communication skills.
