Effective communications can enhance and enable change, motivate and stimulate, and carry your message clearly to all stakeholders in an organisation.

This course is ideal for those looking to enhance their communication abilities, and will reflect on the changes in the communication process within current workplace settings.

Main Learning Outcomes:

Attendees on this course will benefit from enhanced communications skills and a greater knowledge of various tools and applications that support this.

Course Format:

2 x day face-to-face sessions. The course will be split into 2 parts, with the first part delivered by our Leadership and Management Trainer.

There will then be an interval of approximately 2 weeks, to allow attendees to gather any material they may wish to utilise in a live environment in the second session with our Digital Skills Trainer. Feedback will be sought at the end of the first session as to particular areas of interest, so as to guide our Digital Skills Trainer to better meet the needs of attendees during the second session.
