Public Workshops: Cantonese with English Workbook

Introduction

Many managers might find themselves being less authoritative at work. Instead, they are using more persuasive and motivational skills to get work done. This workshop aims to share communication and influencing skills to help managers achieve business goals through real ACTIONS. You will learn how to A-Anticipate, C-Communicate, T-Tune, I-Interact, O-Observe and N-Nisten during the two-day workshop. The skills learned will enable you to manage working relationships to maximise winning situations for everyone. The role-play sessions will provide practical skills that you can apply immediately at work. And you can also explore how your communication behaviour will influence the attitude of your peers and how you can work more effectively with them.
 



What our Participants say:

"Entertaining and not a moment of dullness. There were lots of cases to role play and understand the concepts taught. Lots of real-life cases mentioned as well."
