Course Description:

In order to achieve maximum potential, individuals need to develop an ability to communicate clearly and effectively. This requires a high level of self-awareness and sensitivity to the impact of their behavior on others – as well as an ability to respond confidently and professionally in a range of situations, including those that are difficult or stressful.

This course will enable delegates to develop specific communication techniques which will be invaluable in a wide range of workplace situations. It will cover the three main categories of behavior within the assertiveness model: passive, aggressive and assertive and will give the opportunity to develop skills in dealing confidently and professionally with colleagues, suppliers and customers. The course will use self-analysis tools and practical examples, and will explore how you can become more assertive.

Poor communication can lead to performance and poor performance can lead to losses hence, a company cannot afford to have poor communication.
