SAY IT! HEAR IT!
The Power of Effective Communication
Workshop
Program Summary
No matter what your life circumstance, the ability to interact effectively with others can have a major impact on your job performance and on the quality of your relationships.Â
In today’s high-stress, fast-paced world, it is more difficult than ever to take the time to be a good communicator. Simply hearing someone else is not enough; neither is just talking and assuming others immediately understand what you are telling them. The truth is, old habits are hard to break, and if your communication habits are as unskilled as most people’s are, then there’s a lot of habit-breaking to do!
In this communication workshop, your participants will learn simple, yet powerful techniques that can immediately enhance their ability to positively connect with others through clear speaking and active listening.
