Fantastic news! We've Found the answer you've been seeking!

Question:

You have been working as an office assistant at a small accounting firm for roughly six months. You think it's time for a pay increase. Just recently, however, your supervisor has left and a new one started a week ago. Her name is Maria Chirco and you would like to meet with her privately to discuss your thoughts. She has agreed to meet with you, she knows you're seeking a pay increase, but she is very busy so your thorough preparation for this meeting is vital if you want to make a good impression, use her time wisely, and persuade her to increase your wages.

Assignment

Reflect on the principles of communication, specifically Goals-Oriented and Receiver-Centric to successfully complete the 2 parts below:

A. Goal-Oriented: Identify Goals

What are your Instrumental, Relational, and Identity goals? All three categories must be included in your response. You can list them in numerical order like what is below (instead of in paragraph format), but be sure to answer each in a complete sentence:

1. Instrumental

2. Relational

3. Identity

B. Receiver-Centric: Analyze My Receiver

Analyze your receiver (Maria Chirco) using the receiver-centric resources. Present your analysis in paragraph format using complete, well-crafted sentences. Your analysis should clearly identify who your receiver is, what your relationship is with them, and what your plan is for crafting a message you'll deliver in your meeting (requesting a pay increase) based on what you know about them.
