Download Course OutlineThis is a manager level course to enhance existing abilities in communicating your
ideas, messages and objectives and understanding the effect or impact you have on
others.
Aimed for managers who are required to influence individuals, teams and
departments and don’t always achieve their ideal outcome. This highly interactive
and practical two-day course will enable you to understand and develop your primary
influencing and persuading style to enable you to communicate confidently and
professionally without undermining your personal integrity. Building a tool kit that will
enable you to recognise other people's primary influencing and persuasion styles and
how to adjust your style to move issues and situations forward without pushing,
forcing or telling others what to do. From start to finish, this course is about the 'how
to' approach and is focused on daily issues and problems we all face as a manager
of a varied team.
The combination of group learning, feedback in a supportive environment and
practical exercises, means that you will leave with a real sense of what you can
personally achieve. You will also complete a comprehensive communications style
questionnaire and the outputs will help you develop a priority list of your key skills
and techniques as learned from the course.

questionnaire to complete which asks you to consider current expectations. This will
help you set the context of the course and the information you provide will be used
