Instructor: Leah Gutmann

CEU Hours: 4 hours

Description: Being a good communicator is the foundational skill necessary to excel in all other leadership competencies. In this workshop participants will learn about different communication styles and identify their own communication preferences. The group will learn how to leverage their communication style to achieve goals and gain confidence in their day-to-day conversations. The class will come away with tools to be more successful in all of their relationships through better communication. The group will practice applying what they learn to specific construction and service situations. In addition, the class will cover why it is critical to understand how others communicate and why it is important to be able to adapt to styles that offer a different perspective to the issue or topic at hand.

Objectives: Upon completion of this class, students will: 

  • Gain a clear understanding of communication styles and how communication style affects how others interact with you.
  • Learn how to adapt to other communication styles and use this knowledge to improve relationships with internal and external customers.
  • Be able to gain better results through communicating effectively and with purpose.
  • Explore different communication methods and apply strategies to increase the impact of the messages we send to others.
