chapter 11
• What is communication climate? Comm climate refers to the emotional tone of a relationship. It is a very integral key to positive relationships
|
Differentiate among various types of confirming, disagreeing, and disconfirming messages. Comfirming communication describes messages which convey valuing of the relationship of other person. Discomfirming messages signal a lack of regard for the other person in the relationship
|
How do climates spiral? a reciprocating communication pattern in which each person’s message reinforces the other’s. In positive spirals, one partner’s confirming message leads to a similar response from the other person. Negative spirals are just as powerful, though they leave the partners feeling worse about themselves and reinforce the principle that “what goes around comes around.”

What types of messages are likely to create positive climates as opposed to defensive ones? A climate doesn’t involve specific activities as much as the way people feel about each other as they carry out those activities. Surely you’ve been in classes that are friendly, comfortable places to learn and others that are cold and tense, even hostile. The difference is climate. You’ll see the same sorts of differences in other contexts—family, friendships, and workplaces. If you’ve experienced both kinds of climates, you know what a difference climate makes. Research has shown that employees have a higher level of commitment at jobs in which they experience a positive communication climate. Studies also show that performance and job satisfaction increase when the communication climate is positive. Whether it’s the workplace, the classroom, or the home, people look for and stay in communication climates that affirm and support them.
