Communication skills training: an effective communicator is an effective leader

No senior business executive today can afford to be without excellent communication skills. Whether you're giving an annual address to an audience of 500, presenting a marketing plan to a team of five or delivering an annual evaluation to a member of staff - effective communication results in effective leadership.

These may include role-play situations - sometimes involving actors - giving participants the chance to experience and find ways of dealing positively with challenging situations.

Our Communications Workshops focus on:
  • body language: how to use it to your advantage

  • the importance of telling a congruent story: your body, voice and message should all be saying the same thing.

  • building rapport when meeting a new client

  • voice awareness: making your voice work for you

  • running meetings that give results

  • building flexibility: being open to unexpected outcomes

  • voicing your disagreement after - not before - asking the other person's reason for their opinion

  • active listening.

'I need my entire staff to be able to communicate successfully with our clients. A day with Professionally Speaking made such a difference to us. I know that if I am not available to meet with a client, anyone of my team will be able to carry the ball. Thanks.'
Elizabeth Marks, Vice President, Matthew Marks Gallery, NYC
