Chapter 11- Becoming more mindful

According to our text in chapter eleven a mindful approach to organizational communication enables us to understand, talk "as a mental and relational activity that is both purposeful and strategic. I find this to be very true. We already know that it takes two active listeners and participators in order to be mindful. So when we encounter a communication situation in an organization we should have reached some sort of achievement at the end of a conversation. If nothing can be taken out of the few minutes that you were speaking, then we know that it was a waste of time according to American style of work. Americans work schedules are extremely busy compared to other nations, which is why we want to make the most of time and always be efficient/ mindful in communication.
