Build Healthy Workplace Relationships
Conversations form the basis of our human interaction and relationships. In this fast paced world where time is a precious commodity, it becomes extremely important to transmit and receive ideas and messages accurately and effectively. Effective communication in the workplace goes beyond a mere exchange of words and gestures to reveal a depth of understanding masked by personal judgments, biases and other barriers to communication.
A commitment to a deeper understanding of ourselves, and especially to active learning around how and why we communicate the way we do, will in the end reduce workplace misunderstandings and build stronger relationships. When we have less workplace stress and spend less time on difficult situations, we have more time and mental energy to do the job at hand.
This course will enable participants to learn how to approach each conversation as an essential component to the development of all personal, business and social relationships.
