Workplace Communications
Lack of good communication and individual assertiveness are major contributors to a poor workplace environment. These communication issues can lead to employee under-performance and to poor customer relations.
This seminar is designed for anyone who wants to overcome these issues, to build confidence and to improve their ability to deal with others in the workplace. The seminar is tailored to encourage participants to develop their communication style into a productive, positive and direct manner.
Delegates will learn to develop the confidence and techniques to be assertive and confident in workplace situations that can often be stressful and can sometimes involve confrontation.
