Target group

This course is designed for anyone who wants to strengthen or expand the basic skills in communication. 

Approach

Practice prevails in this hands-on training. We will work with your own learning needs and with real-life cases, supported by video feedback.

In this training we simulate situations in which communication misunderstandings can occur (interviews, meetings, presentations, information transfers, ...). You will learn how to clearly structure your message and communicate openly in these situations. What you have learned, will be put into practice immediately in various practical exercises so you really get a chance to grow.

“The session was very interactive and an impulse on realizing that you are responsible for the thoughts you have and how these have an influence on your communication in life. The session was very valuable in a way that it can be applied to all parts of life, as well in the work environment as in private life.”

“I mainly wanted to learn techniques to give better feedback. This expectation was fully met; in fact, we saw even more than this. I learnt technique to stay calm, communicate better and make sure others don't get worked up when feedback is problematic.”
