The effectiveness of anyone in management is limited by his/her
communication skills
Overview
A manager/team leader/supervisor cannot succeed
without effective communication skills. Technical knowledge and
industry knowledge cannot be used effectively in a management
position without effective communication skills. Managers/team
leaders/supervisors must communicate with staff, colleagues and
customers. Customer problems occur when there is poor
communication. Staff problems are often caused by poor
communication. Management tasks such as counselling, appraisal,
delegation, presentations and meetings are all dramatically
affected by the calibre of communication skills.
Colleagues may ignore managers when they have communication
problems. Conversely, good communication skills aid the success of
the manager.
In this practical and thought-provoking course, participants will
learn the skills, techniques and concepts that are essential to
success.
Who Should Attend
All Managers, Supervisors and Team Leaders. Even
experienced participants will find this valuable as a refresher
and for additional skills.
