Course – Communication Strategies Workshop | Seminar | Training Course
Speaking Up & Connecting Effectively to Achieve Results
Course Duration 1 Day
For the better part of every day, we are communicating to and with others. Whether it’s the speech you deliver in the boardroom, the level of attention you give your spouse when they are talking to you, or the look you give the cat, it all means something.
On a serious note, our professional and personal lives are being impacted fears and doubt in the very real face of uncertainty, Corona CoVid19, Change and Business Continuity Concerns.
At the first utterance of fear and a perceived loss of power people start acting weirdly. Your job, while taking good self-care is to importantly recognise were in ‘this’ together. Whatever your workplace ‘this’ is, you’re being called upon to lean in, stand up and execute.
The Communication Strategies workshop will help participants understand the different methods of communication and how to make the most of each of them. These strategies will provide a great benefit for any organisation and its employees. They will cascade throughout the organisation and positively impact everyone involved.

A Recent Case Study
Case Study: 86 people, 18-30 years, listing 132 fears about communication. Many of their key concerns were centred on self-confidence, wanting the approval of others, loyalty technique and skill. Feedback Tarran received: “I am stunned at how you had everyone up and involved! By far the best workshop I have done in my 7 years of coming to this event and to see the change in that young man – from quiet and self-conscious, to standing at the front of the room with the microphone… wow. Simply life changing for him!’ said Nathan.
