How we communicate with each other, whether it is a co-worker or spouse, can make or break a relationship. In this workshop we will explore how people communicate differently and how you can use your strengths to build relationships with your team and increase people's feeling of being heard.

Through the workshop participants will learn their communication style and how it interacts with other styles. We will also be walking through some communication and group theory that will allow participants to identify stages of the communication process and where struggles may be happening. The goal is for participants to walk out with a strong idea of how to make communication work for them rather than against them.

Objectives:

  • Identify communication styles
  • Explore how styles interact in the communication process
  • Understand the communication process in groups and where breakdowns occur
  • Create strategies for better communication in your life

Emily Buck is facilitating this workshop.
