Your questions about Communication Leadership answered
Is this training right for me?
Let’s make sure it is. Use the contact form at the bottom of this page and book in a call. I’ll ask you a few questions and then tell you about the training. If you see there’s a match, we’re all good to go. However in summary, do this training if you want to advance your skills to create both positive and innovative relationships, support others to excel and resolve conflict with confidence.
Is there value for my employer?
The research is clear, conflict in the workplace has a huge impact on performance – it dilutes task focus, people avoid each other, it hijacks others and has people looking for other employment. Communication Leadership gives individuals the skills and confidence to change this by turning conflict into collaboration. The value to employers is huge.
How come it’s four days?
Four days is a chunk of time to be out of the workplace, but as with all my courses, I provide a quality experience not a tick box exercise. Leadership training works with the brain’s hardwiring and your hardwiring has be forming since birth (actually just before), and so if you want to achieve real development that’s sustainable, you need focused training that understands how the brain wires and rewires. A shorter training may tick the box, but I’d seriously question the quality.
How is the training structured?
Great question! Let me answer that using key principles that make up the structure…
1: Science base – You’ll hear the science behind each part of the content, not so much to feel lectured and academically drowned, but just enough to add to your insights and relate what you hear to your real life experience.
2. Form – As a leadership specialist, my training also includes Neuro Linguistics and brain-based training methodology. Broken down, it means I train according to how the brain learns … each part of the content is presented in terms of why it’s important, what the tool (or model or skill) is, how to apply it and how versitile it is. There’s a method here that makes it simple and accessible for you to have a comprehensive understanding of how a tool works and how to apply it.
3. Practical – Learn by doing. On my trainings you’ll be busy; I aim to minimise the ‘sit and listen’ parts and maximise ‘go do’ parts.
4. Layered training – This means that each part of the training connects to and builds on previous parts.
5. Meta training – In short, I model what I train as I’m training it … maximum sensory congruence!
