3. Recall an occasion when someone tried to force some help on you. How did you
feel? How did you react? Based on your experience, what can you apply to the
delivery of learning initiatives within an organization?
On the occasion where I had someone attempting to force their help upon me made me angry and slightly offended. The way I reacted was irrational, but I did lash out. I can apply an etiquette way of learning initiatives; it wouldn't involve someone forcing help upon another. The reason I lashed out was because I feel that if I truly need help, I'll ask or if someone offers and I feel I need it, then I'll accept. The main thing is to convey tact toward that person in a way that doesn't embarrass or offends them. According to page 316 of our book it goes on to state that "interested parties" should be informed of programs or other availabilities; so if help is offered and someone declines, there is no reason to attempt to force help upon them.
