How we express ourselves, and above all our capacity to listen can have a huge impact on the people around us, and good communication is a great skill to help us build bonds of trust and empathy.
This workshop is not about being ‘good with words’ or a skilled orator; on the contrary, the session aims to help everyone to develop their skills of listening and language to improve everyday relationships - whether at home or in a professional setting. The course includes:
Why communication skills play a big part in emotional intelligence
Reflective listening and how to use it
The language of embedded suggestion
Identifying the unhelpful language, we use with ourselves
Simple guided exercises
