MARCH 2018:

Welcome to March Madness!

ASK YOURSELF… IF YOU COULD ONLY HAVE ONE SOFT SKILL,

WHAT WOULD IT BE?

In a world where there are so many ways in which to contact others, what skill do employers rate as almost top of their wish list? Why is it that we see so many articles, courses and seminars stressing the importance of this skill? It’s simple. Because without it, things fall apart very quickly: COMMUNICATION.

Without proper communication, people can get angry. Clients can become unhappy or confused. Sales and profits can be lost. In certain industries (aviation, for example..), disaster can happen. It’s so important to have a team of finely-tuned communicators. It’s lucky then, that we have two epic public workshops coming up that have a strong focus on COMMUNICATION, its importance, and how to get the COMMUNICATION in your organisation running like a well-oiled machine.

The first? It’s all about personality. An all-encompassing term that plays a huge role in defining you as an individual. Whether you have much interest in the subject or not, it is undeniable that personality not only shapes how you live, interact with others, think and feel, it also has a huge impact on your work style and the relationships you have with your colleagues… as well as, you guessed it, your COMMUNICATION.

We have a fantastic 1-day Workshop coming in Christchurch, that will delve into the more psychological aspects of human interaction, personality style and COMMUNICATION. You will not only gain self-awareness, but awareness of others styles’ so that you can communicate and work more effectively with your colleagues.

The second? LEGO. We all know it. We all love it. But how is it a useful training tool? How can we implement it in a workshop or course to help with leadership, collaboration, team building and COMMUNICATION? And how and why would anyone but a 7-year-old enjoy this toy in a training session? There is a significant amount of science to back up how and why using a tangible tool such as LEGO has a myriad of benefits.

This 1-day course for Trainers will help you to master the process and use this fantastic tool in your own training. Don’t believe us?
