Answers

Answer:

For each different audience you must meet the certain wants and needs of that group..

All effective communication begins with knowing your audience and speaking their language – both literally and figuratively. That doesn’t mean changing your core messages, but rather adjusting the way you present them or the context you offer to help explain those messages in a way that resonates most directly with the people to whom you are speaking. Sometimes that is much harder than it sounds because audiences can vary greatly, whether across a team or an entire organization. So where should you begin?

STEP 1: Determine who your audience is.

You might start by making a list of the various groups that form your audience for an upcoming presentation or a memo that you’re writing. Don’t limit this list. Make sure you consider all aspects of your audience, including peers and those to whom you report, if that applies.

Think about the different segments of your audience and specifically:

what they have in common, and

where they differ.

STEP 2: Consider what is on their minds.

Put yourself in their shoes and think about how they view your topic and what they care about. Looking at the world through their eyes will help you develop an effective message and deliver it in ways that will make your audience more likely to listen, engage and act.

STEP 3: Think about what you need them to know.

While it is absolutely critical that you adjust your messages and means of communication to your audience, that doesn’t mean you should lose sight of what you need them to know. Remember your core messages and make sure you are clearly and effectively incorporating them into your communication, while simultaneously packaging them in a way that will best meet your audience where they are.

Feel like you're communicating but your employees don't always hear you? Our free ebook can help. Based on the strategies and tools of our award-winning messagemap methodology, click here to access messaging secrets on how to connect and communicate with your team.

STEP 4: Think about what you need them to think, feel or do based on what you tell them.

More than just passing along information, effective communication should inform, engage, and inspire listeners or readers. Keep that in mind when you are crafting your next speech or memo. Ask yourself what you want the audience to remember as a result of what you have said. Are you calling them to take action of any kind? Is that “ask” clearly conveyed and repeated for emphasis? The most effective communication moves people to action, and many times we need to ask for what we want!

STEP 5: Decide the best means of communicating this information.

As a child, we’re often reminded “there’s a time and a place” for that (whatever the activity may be). That adage holds true for effective communication as well.

When considering setting and format, if you are sharing news about a major change, perhaps that is best done in a town hall or team meeting to allow for face-to-face dialogue. If you’re passing on regular updates that people need to know, but likely won’t elicit concern, then consider a memo or regular e-newsletter, depending on the channels you have available. The more complex the message, the more you need a face-to-face-like setting.

STEP 6: Ask yourself how you can best relate to your audience and motivate them to take action.

Now we’re getting down to the heart of knowing your audience. Look back at your audience list and their mindset. Think about a story that you could tell that they might relate to, or a way you could relate back how their actions will have a broader impact on the company as a whole. This is your chance to add relevancy to what you’re saying and leave them with a memorable call to action.

Ultimately, the key is knowing your audiences and presenting the information they want to hear along with the information they need to hear in a way that works best for them. When you think about message delivery in those terms, you’re setting up yourself and your audiences for a positive communications experience – no matter the topic you are conveying.

Would newspapers be likely to write articles about a rebellion in a nearby country? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

I don't think they would.

Explanation:

Say that the newspapers are in America. The newspapers would be unlikely to write about a rebellion in, say, Japan if it has nothing to do with America. Newspapers only report the news if it has something to do with America. You know those people who buy a newspaper everyday to read? Do you think they're going to waste their money buying a newspaper in America that talks about a rebellion in Japan? Those people don't care about what happens in Japan, because the rebellions don't effect them.

Of course, there are exceptions, like if those people had a relative living in Japan. However, I'm talking about the majority of people who buy newspapers. They want to know what's going on in America, not something that's happening in some other country they don't care about.

If the newspapers wrote about it, their sales would go down and they would lose money.

Unless the rebellion is related to America in some way, I don't think newspapers would write about it since they might lose money, writing about things irrelevant to America.

C.
The bee is similar to a snake, where both are underestimated for their ability to strike when it is least expected.
D.
The bee is cruel and unfair for attacking him for no apparent reason other than laying his head on a bed of roses.
Poem:
Cupid, once upon a bed,
Of roses laid his weary head;
Luckless urchin, not to see,
Within the leaves, a slumbering bee.
The bee awak'd, with anger wild,
The bee awak'd, and stung the child.
Loud and piteous his cries,
"Oh, Mother! I am wounded through,
Stung by some little angry thing that flew,
Like a mean serpent on a tiny wing,
An ugly bee it was, for once, I know it was so."
Then she said, "My infant, if so much
Thou feel the little wild bee's touch,
How must the heart, ah, Cupid! be,
The hapless heart that's stung by thee!"
