Learning how to communicate effectively in the workplace is crucial in optimising your performance. Good business communicators are highly valued by their organisations, however not everyone is a natural communicator. Fortunately, the keys to communicating effectively can be learned. This course runs in Perth, Bunbury and Kalgoorlie.
What is a Crucial Conversation? A crucial conversation is a discussion between two or more people where the stakes are high, opinions vary and emotions run strong. These conversations, when handled poorly or ignored, lead to strained relationships and dismal results.
Clear, authentic self-expression and active listening are key ingredients of this course. Embrace the power of assertive communication as a woman, develop confidence and learn to communicate effectively with people at all levels in your organisation.
Communication by managers within an organisation should be guided by the real needs of stakeholders. This course explores several tools to help identify those real needs and not just work from assumptions. In doing so, organisations can create communication strategies that enable effective engagement with those stakeholders.
