Question 1: Do you speak up early in meetings?

No, I typically feel too nervous to speak up. Sometimes, even when I have a
good idea, I wait until the meeting is over and then tell it to the presenter in
private because I’m scared other people won’t like it or that they’ll think I talk
too much for someone who is new to the company.

1. Question 1: Do you speak up early in meetings?

R= No, I often feel very nervous when speaking in public and in meetings as I
cannot express myself effectively. I also consider myself a perfectionist and by
not doing things well and being nervous I can lose control in the presentations.

2. Question 2: Can you get to the point quickly?

R= No, I always explain down to the smallest detail. I consider that taking into
account each of these is vitally important to publicize everything, only that it is
tedious because sometimes there is not enough time to explain it completely.

3. Question 3: Do you use declarative language?

R= Sometimes if I apply that language, when I am really sure of what I am
saying, but sometimes not, if I resort to "I believe" since I am not so sure of
what I am saying.

4. Question 4: Are you able to stand firm?

R= No, I consider myself a very nervous person, I always make movements
with my hands, I never have direct contact with the eyes of others and my voice
usually shakes when I am commenting or saying something.

5. Question 5: Do you feel like you can ask for what you need?
R= I'm a little insecure person and sometimes I get nervous about not doing
things right or trying to do everything at the same time and not finishing or
reaching the goals. What I do know is that I always look for a way to do things
and adapt to changes.

6. Question 6: Do you usually say no?

R= Yes and I consider that it is not wrong to say "no", since we cannot commit
ourselves to doing things when we do not have the time or the desire. We must
always think about our organization to be able to do everything and meet the
goals.
