TEKS (c) (3)(A) Prior Student Learning Previous career and technical education courses in the GPA cluster Estimated Time 1 to 2 hours INTERPERSONAL SKILLS Rationale Interpersonal skills are important for workers in Government and Public Administration so they can learn to collaborate with others to accomplish goals and objectives.

Demonstrate effective working relationships using interpersonal skills 3. Use positive interpersonal skills to work cooperatively with others 4. Demonstrate respect for individuals, especially those from different cultures, genders, and backgrounds 5. Demonstrate sensitivity to and value for diversity Engage Begin by asking students how we can communicate without speaking. Make a list on the board. Proceed to the alphabetical line activity below: Alphabetical Line: Have the students get in a single-file line organized alphabetically (by their last names). They must complete this task without talking to each other or making any noise. They may use non-verbal communication, but no sound. They have five minutes to complete the task. After time is up, have the students discuss their methods for completing the task. Which were the most effective? Which were the least effective? Use the Discussion Rubric for assessment. Key Points I. Positive personal traits A. Good relationships at work can help you enjoy your work and do it more effectively B. Assess your own traits as a starting point to developing good work relationships C. Important personal qualities 1. Responsibility dependability, punctuality, and positive motivation 2.

Interrupting private conversations IV. Valuing diversity A. Today s workforce is becoming more diverse, with people from different countries, cultures, backgrounds, and generations B. The workplace can benefit from the ideas and perspectives of many different people 1. Working with people who are different from us makes us less likely to rely on old assumptions that might be wrong 2. Opens us up to considering new ideas and points of view 3. Leads to new discoveries C. Respecting differences (culture, religion, age, gender, viewpoint) 1. Aids in communication 2. Shows that you are part of a community of workers with 2
3 common needs and goals 3. Helps employees relate to each other and be more accommodating to others; this spills over to the people they serve D. To take advantage of a diverse workforce, look beyond stereotypes 1. Cultural differences people from different ethnic backgrounds have different customs; what is polite in one culture may be rude in another. Cultural blunders happen, even when you have the best intentions. Learn by reading and observing, and apologize, even if you are unintentionally impolite. 2. Gender distinctions have mutual respect for others regardless of gender; it is illegal to harass or discriminate against someone because of gender 3. Generational distinctions young and old people can have different points of view; bridge differences by listening carefully to the other person s viewpoint and finding areas of agreement Activities 1. Perceptions Activity: Pass out two index cards per person. On one, have students write what career they would each like to pursue after high school, but do NOT put their names on cards. On the other card, have them write their names and dates of birth (DOB). Ask for a volunteer. Pick up the DOB cards (keep these separate). Pick up the career cards. a. First, have the volunteer arrange students in age order. The volunteer and the students may not speak. The volunteer does this based on his or her perception. While the volunteer is arranging the students, arrange the DOB cards in chronological order. Once the volunteer has arranged the students, have him or her place him or herself in the line. Using the index cards, place the students in the proper order. See how close the volunteer was in placing the students. b. Next, ask for another volunteer. Have that volunteer give the career cards to the person he or she believes has that career goal. Once the volunteer has handed out all the cards, have the students who have their correct cards sit down. Collect the career cards from the remaining students. Ask for a volunteer who is seated and have that student try placing the remaining career cards with the standing students. Have students with their correct cards sit down. Repeat until no one is standing. c. Discuss the perceptions regarding age and career path based on the way someone looks. Use the Discussion Rubric for assessment. 2. Norm Violation Activity: (to be completed outside of class) a. Assign each student one of the following rule violations: When studying next to someone in the library, place your books and other belongings in his or her area. In the library or another appropriate space, find a table 3
4 where only one other person is seated. Seat yourself next to the person and begin studying. When talking to another person, stare directly at the person and do not drop your gaze. Carry on a conversation with an acquaintance. During the conversation, move so that you are standing approximately one foot apart. If the person moves, adjust your position. During the course of a conversation, talk louder than the other person. Carry on a conversation with another person and avoid eye contact completely. On the way from class, find a person walking alone toward you and make eye contact with the individual and do not drop your gaze as they walk past. Upon entering an elevator, turn and face another person in the elevator and maintain eye contact with the individual until either of you exit the elevator. b. Have students record the following about their assignment. Use the Writing Rubric for assessment. A description of the experience What is the norm for this experience? What happens if you adhere to this rule? What happens if you violate the rule? Are there any exceptions to this rule? c. When students return after the assignment has been completed, begin a discussion about the norms in social interactions being broken. Discuss how breaking a communication norm can prohibit the creation or maintaining of interpersonal relationships. Use the Discussion Rubric for assessment.
