Through this workshop, we will examine how communication apprehension is a phenomenon impacting the library workplace. Together, we will examine how communication apprehension is associated with either real or anticipated one-on-one or group communication. During our time together, we will work on developing an understanding of the types of communication apprehension and gain insight into strategies for managing communication anxiety. Rather than seeking to eliminate your communication apprehension, we will focus on developing transferable skills, including your communication competency as a team member and leader in the library.
Leave with ways to:
• Understand communication apprehension as a leader and team member.
• Apply communication apprehension knowledge to library settings.
• Increase communication skills and reduce communication apprehension.
