Learn to Communicate with More Confidence and Personal Impact on our Effective Communication Skills Course
Hi there Im Liz Banks. Can you try and remember back to the last time you met someone you thought was a really good communicator.
Was it something about their voice? Their smile? The confidence they exuded? The way they stood maybe? Or was it a combination of all that and more?
And have you ever thought you'd really like to be able to communicate like that as well?
And that's where Skillstudio can help you. We are passionate about helping you maximise your impact in front of an audience.
Effective Communication Skills - our one day course
Effective Communication Skills is a one-day training course which will help you to express yourself more effectively, have more influence with your colleagues and appear more confident in front of others.
This is a highly practical and interactive course. You will be working both individually and in small groups on a variety of vocal and practical exercises, interactive discussions and role plays throughout the day.
Complete your communication skills course and see the results
You'll leave the workshop with your own personal development plan and a toolkit of techniques to turn that plan into action. You will also leave the workshop with a buzz and with a great sense of achievement. You will also be able to:-
- Speak with more confidence and listen carefully to build rapport
- Analyse and utilise body language to your advantage
- Steer conversations and influence people
- Have the confidence to make more of an impact on your audience.
- Enhance your professionalism at work
- ... and have had a fun time doing it
You'll find it a highly practical, enjoyable and very rewarding experience
