Communication - Harmonious Teamwork

The workplace is made up of individuals with their own personalities and way of seeing this world.  Those differences can be beneficial for creativity and problem solving, but they can also lead to clashes and conflict. 

To bring out the best in your staff, we have built a bespoke course that will provide practical insight and solutions to common communication shortcomings, aiming at assisting staff to work together better. It is all about widening our understanding of what we can do to create a harmonious, positive, and respectful environment.  An environment in which people treat one another with dignity, communicate for the purposes of achieving the goals of the business, and have a forward-thinking (positive) approach to problem solving and working towards targets.

Exploring both verbal and written communication, particularly in terms of relationship building and maintaining teamwork, interpersonal skills and tone of message. In addition, providing insight into how to positively influence others for achieving collective goals.

If you are abrupt or confrontational in tone or demeanour, you lack basic interpersonal communication skills and will struggle to build key relationships, work effectively in a team or persuade anyone to go the extra mile for you.

This course could be particularly beneficial to assisting in cultural change if all staff members participate.
