Description: |

Increasingly
today's teams
need to function
autonomously,
managing
themselves as
they strive to
perform with
excellence.
Participants
will be exposed
to the latest
theories of
group dynamics
while
strengthening
their individual
ability to
function
optimally as a
team member
and/or leader.
Effective
communication is
at the core of
any successful
work team. Many
of the skills to
communicate
effectively,
however, are not
fully understood
nor utilized.

This
intensive
workshop will
identify the
skills necessary
to develop and
maintain
effective and
efficient
cross-functional
work teams.
Participants
will practice
the rudimentary
hands-on skills
needed to
explore and
improve their
personal impact
and effect on
others, and
organizational
processes.
|
|
This
course will
present the
various
techniques of
effective
communication,
give
participants the
opportunity to
both practice
these
techniques, and

communication
style. The

nature of this
workshop insures

Skills

Employees,

and

Workshop
Size:

Facilitator);

(Two

|
 |
Program
Description:
|
Interpersonal
communication
is at
the core
of any
successful
work
team.
Not
confined
to any
single
aspect
of our
lives,
it
pervades
everything
we do
and say
(as well
as what
we don't
do and
don't
say).
The
impression
we leave
on
people,
the way
we
express
ourselves,
how we
come
across
to
others,
how we
listen,
empathize,
and
sympathize,
and the
attitude
behind
our
words
and
actions
all
contribute
to the
quality
and
success
of our
interaction
with
others.
|
This program
provides a
comprehensive
exploration,
understanding,
and practice of
the essentials
of good
communication
and how they
determine our
effectiveness in
the workplace. |

Giving and Receiving
Feedback
Target Audience:
Employees, Supervisors,
and Managers
Length: One Day
Workshop Size:
12-18 (One facilitator);
18+ (Two Facilitators)
Program Description:
 |
One of the most
important skills
influencing
motivation,
performance, and
productivity in
the workplace is
providing
honest,
respectful, and
timely feedback
to co-workers.
Despite the fact
that all
managers are
expected to
provide
feedback, few
are ever trained
in how to do it.
Employees are
known to say
that the only
feedback they
ever get is
negative- the
kind that is
most often
referred to as
"constructive
criticism".
Seldom does
anyone look
forward to
"receiving
feedback". |
Often, it is
simply avoided.
Even a little
feedback,
however, is
better than no
feedback. There
are ways to do
it poorly, well,
and superbly.
This
experiential
workshop
provides
individuals, no
matter what
their position
or experience
level, the
framework,
techniques, and
practice to
improve the
skill and art of
giving and
receiving
feedback. |
|
Program
Objectives:
-
Identifying and
exploring the types
of feedback and
their applications
-
Exploring conditions
for effective
feedback
-
Guidelines and
ground rules for
giving and receiving
feedback
-
Understanding and
overcoming barriers
to feedback
-
Improving the skill
of feedback
-
Strategies for
effective feedback
