leadership. The leader must be able to share knowledge and ideas to transmit a

matter."

Revised Summary Reader Response

  The article "Firefighting robots go autonomous" by Little (2021) discuss the capabilities of these particular robots and their benefits. With more than 350,000 American homes burning annually and climate change contributing to 10,000 active daily wildfire worldwide, firefighters need an alternative solution to put out the fires effectively. Robots are able to offer some respite to firefighters entering blazing building or traversing steep mountains. Over 3000 Americans die from fires annually, which includes an average of 80 firefighters (Little, 2021). With technological advancements, firefighters are now equipped with robots to aid their work.

The Soul of Communication Reaction

Upon reading the article, it has given me a better understanding of how important communication and critical thinking is in the working industry. From the article in 2008 by IDC, it stated that the cost of employee's misunderstanding and poor communication in the United States and United Kingdom was estimated at US$37 billion. From this article, it got me thinking what would the outcome be if there wasn't any miscommunication, the money lost could have been used to improve the companies and the work life  of the workers. I also have learnt that the root of the cause of poor communication is due to poor employee engagement and attrition, the companies fail to effectively train good communication skills to the workers as they didn't touch the core of the communication. From this alone it got me thinking what exactly is the core of communication? I agree with the second last paragraph stating that, when leaders think critically and communicate clearly, they are also able to el...
