Effective Communication
You don’t need to be in Public Relations for the topic of communication
to be relevant. Organizational leaders, subject matter experts and employees benefit when they can successfully interact, exchange information and engage with each other.
What is workplace communication?
Any time you share information, receive insights or engage with the ideas of others. This includes spoken, written and visual forms of transmission.
Public Speaking ∙ Team Meetings ∙ Business Cases ∙ Analytics ∙ Process Documentation ∙ Presentations ∙ KPIs ∙ Social Media
Feedback ∙ Performance Reviews ∙ 1:1 Meetings ∙ Business Continuity ∙ Email ∙ Facilitation ∙ Remote Engagement ∙ Brainstorming ∙ De-escalation

Enhancing communication skills begins with one simple starting point: intention.
Why? Increasing your knowledge about different communicatiopn techniques and approaches benefits you only if you can identify when to deploy them. Being intentional with your communication means:
Listening to understand, not waiting for your turn to speak
Adjusting your communication style based on the situation
Designing the appropriate message, visuals & surroundings for the audience
Speaking consciously
Reading the room to ‘hear’ what is left unsaid
Removing barriers to effective communication
