Our program will give you the skills, mindset, & network to find a job you love, doing work that matters. Join as at our info session to take the next step toward a career you are passionate about.
Have you ever struggled to find the right words to communicate your perspective? Perhaps you have found it hard to work effectively with a peer. Or, maybe you have been misunderstood in the workplace and want to bridge that gap.
No matter what your experience, there are mental models and social exercises that can help you to better articulate yourself and to understand your audience. Through these practices, you will bring clarity to your conversations and become an effective communicator with many different personality types.
GOALS
In this hands-on workshop, we'll help you grasp communication from all angles. You'll leave the evening with a clear understanding of:
- Different communication styles and why you should care about them.
- How to identify your own dominant communication style(s).
- How to identify the communication styles of others.
- How to use case studies and role-playing in order to cultivate new communication styles.
- How to take control of an interpersonal dynamic by leveraging your new-found skills.
