April 30 – Training: Communicating for Results

Do some people just seem to “get you” more easily than others? Do you seem to speak the same language, understand the same priorities and appreciate the same approach to things? Do you wonder why that is?

Engendering the collaboration and cooperation of others is critical to professional success. Communication skills underscore our ability to confidently approach those who are capable of giving us what we need to keep projects and processes moving forward.  So too are patience, flexibility and the capacity for understanding the different social styles of colleagues. This course takes place in Pullman on 4/30 from 1:30-4 p.m.

It will explore how to tailor communications to best address the needs and interests of your audience.  It includes a review of the “Rules of Asking for Cooperation,” a personal assessment of social styles, and communication tips for increasing the likelihood of productive relationships.  It is important to register in advance, to register now click here!
