Why Improve Communication Skills? |
"The problem with communication...is the illusion that it has been accomplished"
Rudyard Kipling
Communication is an activity that we must do, but we are given very little instruction about how to do it well. It is just expected that when we leave school and go into the workplace that we have the skills to communicate effectively.
Communication goes beyond words, so imagine how powerful it is. It affects many aspects of people's lives, so when we increase our awareness and develop the power of communication we benefit in so many ways, both at work and at home. |
Communication Skills - The Course |
This one-day course, which uses Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques, will help people improve their interactions with other people in the workplace and at home. They will gain an understanding of how people communicate and why they communicate the way they do.
The workshop is highly interactive with various activities, which allows participants to practice the techniques covered during the day.
At the end of the course participants will:
- Have strategies that they can use to improve their interaction with others.
- Be aware of what barriers affect communication.
- Be able to communicate clearly and effectively and as a result improve their relationships both at work and at home.
- Have an understanding of their preferred communication style and be able to adapt to different communication styles.
- Be able to deal with situations assertively.
- Be aware of their body language and the impact it has on their communication
- Know how to build rapport with others.
- Understand the importance of effective communication and feedback in a team environment.
