Compare them in the following ways: (1) competence, (b) caring, (c) character, and (d) ease of communication. Your response should be based on your understand of these concepts from Chapter 1 in your textbook.
Write four to five paragraphs (500-word minimum). Conclude with several general statements about the impact of credibility on communication efficiency and effectiveness. Use correct English/grammar. This is a writing class and your writing style will be gauged in this assignment. Think carefully about your response and check your work before submitting.
