Communication at Work

Who should attend?

Managers, Supervisors and staff who want to be able to communicate effectively at work and whose performance depends on understanding situations, understanding others, understanding communications and being understood.

Why should you attend?

Communication is essential for any business. Not just the effective relay of information getting to the right person/people at the right time but also in the right way.  Poor communication can cost a company a great deal – in money, time and bruised egos.

On this interactive course you will learn why we communicate, the hidden agendas behind what people say, how to choose the best communication method to fit the message and the person and how to choose the best language for the situation so that your meaning is clear and understood. You will also learn the difference between passive, assertive and aggressive communication and identify your own style and that of others around you. You will leave feeling more confident in your communication strategy.
