Communication Skills: Because Every Word Matters
- Virtual PresentationKeynote PresentationWorkshop SessionHalf Day TrainingFull Day Training
Gary McDougall’s engaging and powerful keynote presentation entitled “Communication Skills; Because Every Word Matters” will invite you to look at the way you have traditionally communicated. Effective communication seems to be a dying art in North American culture as people seem to have become socially isolated. Given this degree of social isolation, when we do find an opportunity to communicate with others, we need to maximize the value of that communicative investment.
This presentation will assist you in conveying your message, managing assumptions and ensuring that the message intended was the message received. Some of the communication strategies we have historically subscribed to may not be effective in terms of message delivery, and there is value therefore in looking at not only what we are saying, but also what we mean.
