Confronting and problem solving? Not sure that's a main skill.

Confronting and problem solving sounds familiar, but I’m not sure if they are considered communication skills in this context. I might skip that one.

I practiced a similar question where internal and external communication were key. I think they definitely play a role in Tom's job.

I'm a bit unsure about the formal and informal options. I feel like both are relevant, but I can't recall if they specifically apply here.

I remember we talked about different types of communication in our last study session. I think both vertical and horizontal communication are important for project managers.

I feel pretty good about this one. The key communication skills for a project manager seem to be formal/informal, vertical/horizontal, and internal/external. I'll make sure to select those options.

Okay, let me think this through. A project manager would need to use both formal and informal communication, as well as communication that goes up and down the hierarchy (vertical) and across teams (horizontal). They'd also need to communicate with both internal and external stakeholders.

This seems like a straightforward question about communication skills. I'll start by thinking through the different types of communication that a project manager would use.

I'm feeling a little lost on this one. The COSO framework has a lot of different components, and I want to make sure I don't mix up the details around risk management roles and responsibilities.

Okay, I think I've got this. The iLER is the ingress Label Edge Router for the LSP, so I just need to identify which router is the ingress point for LSP B.

Ugh, communication skills? Isn't that just common sense? I bet the correct answer is 'all of the above.' If you can't communicate effectively, you might as well just send smoke signals.

This is a classic case of 'communication is the key to success.' I bet Tom spends more time on his phone than actually working on the project! *chuckles*

Hmm, I'm not sure about the 'confronting and problem solving' option. Isn't that more of a negotiation skill? But I guess it could be relevant in certain communication contexts. I'll mark that one too, just to be safe.

I also think C) Internal and External are involved. Communication with team members is internal, while communication with stakeholders is external.

Vertical and horizontal communication are crucial in project management, no doubt about it. And internal and external communication are just as important. I'm confident in my answer here.

Ah, this is a tricky one! Formal and informal communication skills are definitely involved, but I'm not sure about the others. I'll have to think this through carefully.
