Language, Communication & Influence
The Language, Communication and Influence session focuses on what constitutes effective communication in the workplace. Participants will adopt a style that increases their ability to gain influence and succeed as they progress through the organization. They will increase their ability to use a wider range of skills to achieve their desired outcomes by:
- Moving from low-power to high-power speech
- Increasing awareness of potentially harmful conversational rituals that have become habits
- Understanding how some forms of body language affect perceptions of confidence and competence
