Who Am I As A Communicator?

Many of the inventories we complete this past week had similar results for me as I looked at my self-eval, my husband's eval, and my supervisor's eval.  There were two major differences though that really stood out to me.  While I don't see myself as verbally aggressive (nor does my boss) my husband see quite the opposite.  I supposed this means that I am almost too relaxed and laid back with immediate family.  Definitely an area to work on as we are starting to raise a family - things such as this can really influence children and their perceptions of parents or how they start to react to others as they grow.  I don't want my two-year-old to catch on to verbal aggressions!  The second thing that surprised me was that my supervisor finds me confident and effective as far as communication goes, even public speaking/dealings.  I find myself to be very nervous and anxious when I need to do something or speak in front of a group of adults - even coworkers!  I worry and am very nervous.  She perceives me as relaxed and effective.  I suppose that's a good thing... in undergrad studies I remember one professor telling me it is very important to remain professional no matter what you are really feeling especially when it comes to masking nervousness or fear.  This has stuck with me and I guess it has paid off!
