Communication Skills --Is Anybody Listening? Communicating for Increased Effectiveness

Have you ever wondered if anybody really hears what you say? Do you want to speak more persuasively? Time and time again, managers and employees wish everyone else communicated better. (But, who’s pointing fingers?) Repeatedly, poor communication, not money, has been identified as the root of all evil in professional and personal relationships.

In this program you will learn how to make people want to listen to you in small gatherings or in large assemblies. You will see why both “active listening” and “congruent sending” together make for better communications under all circumstances. You will be given a set of situations in which a variety of communicating responses are possible. How will you score? And what about body language? Is it sending messages you don’t want sent? All this and more is waiting for you in this program.

For improved communication skills, you will learn from this program how to:
1. Speak to co-workers, subordinates, supervisors and your spouse more effectively
2. Listen with such effectiveness that your relationships will improve
3. Give oral presentations that leave your audience assured that you know what you are talking about
4. Practice the LISTEN™ model of compassionate listening
5. Use the eight principles of powerful presentations
6. Understand the short circuits in the communication process
