Question

Which of the following is least likely to encourage a positive response to a persuasive message? a) Establishing your credibility b) Positive and polite language c) Respecting cultural differencesd) Using industry-specific terminology e) Being sensitive to organizational cultures

Answer 1

d) Using industry-specific terminology

Step-by-step explanation:

The purpose of a persuasive message is to convince the audience to accept the ideas proposed in it . And one important way of helping people to agree with an idea is by having good communication and stablishing a common ground. However, when jargons or industry-specific terminology are used, the understanding gets limited to only those who are familiar with them, which might not lead to a positive response from the ones that could feel excluded.
