Significance of marketingFamiliarity Presentation Message
What Danielle Learned.. Privacy regulations that exist in the
workplace and within families contradict privacy policies within DVIP
• In organizations (video surveillance, phone tapping, data mining are viewed unacceptable by employers; employers argue to improve working conditions)
• In families-“what happens behind closed doors”-“there’s no place like home”-sharing a room?
• DVIP-limited ‘sphere’ of privacy-main objective is keeping clients safe -disclosing shelter address
What Darin Learned..Communicating multiple identities
Importance of good humor in an organization
Report vs. rapport talk

Work-life Conflict (p. 177)What is this?
• The simultaneous influence of work on members’ lives away from work
• At home, at leisure, and in families and communities-the influence of personal life responsibilities and aspirations on members’ experiences at work
Mindful Communication (p.40)What is this?
• Enables us to understand talk as “as a mental and relational activity that is both purposeful and strategic”
• Everyday occurrence at DVIP
• How does mindful communication differ from mindless/phatic communication?
Critical Modes of Being (p.164)1. Being filled with care
-attention directed to others2. Being filled with thought
-taking action3. Being filled with good humor
-willingness to ‘go with the flow’
Creativity and Constraint (p.32)Creativity of individuals vs. the constraint of
the organization
How this applies to DVIP:-listening vs. advising
Systems Theory (p.86)What is this?
- It evokes the image of a complex, interdependent organization that operates within a dynamic environment and is engaged in an ongoing struggle to create order in the face of unpredictability
