Communication Skills

Our ability to communicate with others directly affects how we are perceived, how others react to us and our ability to make ourselves understood.  This workshop explores some of the unconscious techniques and patterns that we use in everyday conversation and the impact these techniques may have on others.  This workshop will help you understand how to improve your communication skills and identify the linguistic patterns used by others to build rapport and understand how to avoid conflict and resolve communication issues.

This workshop examines five key areas:

•          What is meant by communication?

•          Why filters are important and the impact they have on understanding and meaning

•          Big picture to detail

•          Unconscious language habits

•          Building and breaking rapport
