Golden Nugget 1 Chapter 6 of our chapter is on Personality, Temperament, and Communication Traits and there are several things that I have found interesting. The golden nugget that I have found from this chapter is that “communication apprehension is considered as a disability because of its overwhelmingly negative influence on an individual’s communication behavior and success across communication contexts, including the context of organizational communication” (Richmond et al., 2013, p. 69). I have never imagined that an individual’s fear can ever become a disability for him or her. After going through this chapter I have understood how communication apprehension can also become a reason for the disability of a person.
