Course Outline / Curriculum
- Communication Basics
- To start, participants will discuss the characteristics and behaviours that they believe make a good communicator. Then, they will go over a simple communication model to better understand what factors influence successful communication.
- Communication Barriers
- After analysing a case study, participants will discuss barriers to communication. We will then unpack Hofstede's dimensions to better understand cultural differences and how they might be a barrier to communication.
- Asking Questions
- Understanding what someone is truly saying, and not assuming their message, is a crucial part of accurate communication. We do this by asking good questions. In this section, participants will learn how to ask questions politely and effectively.
- Listening Skills
- Hearing and listening are often different things. This section will help participants to pay attention and communicate that they are listening to a speaker.
- Body Language
- Our gestures, eye contact, posture, clothing, and proximity to people communicate messages to others. In this session, participants will learn important principles to keep in mind while communicating.
- Creating a Positive Self-Image
- The way we present ourselves tells others about us. Participants will evaluate how they are currently portraying themselves, and whether they would make a change.
- Frame of Reference
- The way we frame a situation has a big impact on how we interpret it. Participants will learn how to challenge their frames of reference to think more clearly.
- Assertiveness
- How we see ourselves has an impact on how we interact with others. This session will investigate ways that participants can improve their self-image and thereby deal with difficult situations assertively and positively. They will also learn formulas to help them structure their communications to be as effective as possible.
