It was very informative and I was able to identify some specific areas within myself to work on to become a more effective team member."

To meet the challenges of success in the work place, one skill continues to underlie all others: the ability to display effective communication skills with customers, coworkers, superiors and subordinates. Without good, effective communication skills, all other functions in the workplace suffer. This course provides the assertive and effective communication skills needed in the business environment to be: fair, ethical, focused on the objectives of the enterprise and help maintain self-esteem. Case studies and interactive group work are used to develop effective communication skills in the workplace to address difficult or conflict situations. These assertive communication skills include the successful negotiation between departments and with customers so that everyone is satisfied. The course reviews case studies and practices assertive communication skills with a business negotiation focus that include: how to leverage the law of reciprocity, when to make the first offer, when and how to make concessions and when to say no. Skills in verbal and nonverbal effective communication habits are reviewed and practiced. The DISC personality test profile is used as a tool in the training to assist in analyzing and understanding communication style behavior of individuals involved in the assertive communication process.
