The Social State of Man
This is the aspect
of man that describes his relationship with people. Hargie (1997:10), citing
Combs and Slaby, defines social skill as ‘the ability to interact with others
in a given social context in specific ways that are socially acceptable or
valued and at the same time personally beneficial mutually beneficial or
beneficial primarily to others’.
The
Professional/Vocational Aspect of Man
This is
usually an offshoot of all the other sides of man as they affect his job or
career. The professional state of man has to do with his competence and
performance at work. In other words, this can be described by his competence
and performance in relation to his job or tasks.
Having thus
established the foregoing, let us now go on to consider how the four
communication skills can be used to enhance these aspects of man to attain a
maximized life style.
