The Soul of Communication Reflection

After reading the article, I learnt the importance of critical thinking and effective communication. I learnt that the lack of these 2 skills will result in miscommunication, which can cause the company a huge amount of financial loss. Such losses could be avoided if companies focused on critical thinking and effective communication trainings, which would prevent miscommunication in the workplace.

Critical thinking is also known as the force behind effective communication. Critical thinking allows us to organize our thoughts and put them together before we decide to relay the message to our colleagues and peers. As a result, critical thinking prevents vagueness and miscommunication in communication. Critical thinking also gives more credibility to our words as they are not spoken under influence of our emotions.

In my opinion, leaders in the workplace need to know the importance of critical thinking and set an example for their colleagues to follow. However, it is everyone’s responsibility to practice them in order for effective communication to take place.

This passion made me decide to take the leap of faith from IT to engineering as I want to be able to make something with my hands and watch it come to life. Additionally, with the increase in demand for automation, I am confident that I will be able to secure a job that lines with my passion after graduation with this degree.   My strength in communication lies in knowing when to speak and when to listen. During conversations, I am able to provide a listening ear while throwing in necessary inputs. Furthermore, with my knack for being engag

NASA Summary Draft 1 with Janaish

On February 18, 2021, NASA’s Mars helicopter, Ingenuity, along with their rover, Perseverance, successfully landed in Jezero Crater, Mars (Gohd, 2021). Ingenuity is the first aircraft to have flown on Mars. According to Mimi Aung, Ingenuity’s project manager at NASA, it had been fully tested on Earth before it took off for its Mars mission. Ingenuity was not designed to help with research on Mars. Its main responsibility is to test flight on Mars and prove that flight is possible on Mars. Ingenuity faced several challenges on its mission on Mars, such as attempting flight in Mars' thin atmosphere and dealing with wind and dust storms as well as receiving enough energy through its solar panels to power itself. Ingenuity succeeded with the first three flights, flying each subsequent flight to higher altitudes and for longer durations. However, on its fourth flight attempt, the helicopter failed to shift to "flight mode", which resulted in a delay of the fourth flight. As
