Why Choose this Training Course?
This course increases the confidence of everyone to cope effectively in any communication challenge, including presenting in public, handling difficult people and conflict situations.
We communicate all the time, yet rarely think about it. We often communicate without being fully aware of the messages we are really sending. Success depends on being understood, understanding others and communicating well together. Building healthy working relationships is vital to business success. A major part of this is understanding your own personal communication style, how we can (and do!) influence other people, and how you use your style to create effective and rewarding business relationships.
What are the Goals?
After attending this course, delegates will be able to:
- Introduce a wide range of practical communication skills to the participants
- Deepen participants understanding and awareness of themselves and others and how to manage emotions and habits
- Clarify communication pitfalls and how to avoid them
- Enhance the participants ability to achieve results through working with others
- Provide opportunities for participants to assess their own communication skills
Who is this Training Course for?
Any work professional wishing to achieve maximum results from work situations that involve other people would benefit greatly from attending this course.
How will this Training Course be Presented?
This course is highly practical and participative. All theory is backed with interactive exercises, which enable participants to gain confidence in using the methods presented.
