Overview

There’s that person you look up to – the one who seems confident in any situation; seems at ease when communicating at any level; and seems to be liked by all. You wish you could be like that, but it’s just not you. Having a better understanding of yourself - your strengths, as well as your areas for improvement - will allow you to start building your confidence to improve your communication and social skills.

Aside from the weekly sessions, participant will have the opportunity weekly to practice and get feedback on their results. Some of these practice opportunities will be based on the results from the “What’s My Communication Style” assessment participants will complete between weeks 1 and 2.

The course is for anyone who wants to improve their communication with peers, co-workers, and managers, and others they regularly interact with.
