Participant Challenges
You often find yourself misunderstood or misinterpreted, regardless of how carefully you try to communicate. Your tone is questioned, your intent is doubted, and feedback frequently triggers defensiveness or silence. You hesitate to speak up in tense situations and feel unprepared when emotions run high. Act now to avoid damaging your credibility, weakening your influence, and eroding your team’s long-term respect and cohesion.
Course Objectives
Designed and delivered by Nicholas Hill Academy Ltd, this course strengthens your interpersonal skills to communicate clearly, concisely, and with self-control in high-pressure situations. You adapt your communication style to suit different personalities in your team, express yourself assertively, and lead high-stakes conversations with credibility. You protect team morale and build long-term respect through effective interpersonal communication.
