Question

how will taking ownership in communication most likely improve a relationship?
by showing empathy
by promoting honesty
by establishing dominance
by preventing hurt feelings

Explanation:

Taking ownership in communication means being accountable for one's words and actions. Promoting honesty is closely tied to this as it involves being truthful about one's role, mistakes, or intentions. Showing empathy is more about understanding others' feelings, establishing dominance is not a positive relationship - building behavior, and preventing hurt feelings is not the primary outcome of taking ownership (it's more about honesty and accountability).

Answer:

B. by promoting honesty
