Communication Training Courses in Newcastle

This one day, highly interactive, fun, yet practical event has been designed for delegates to learn more about themselves and the different styles of others, increasing personal effectiveness to support the achievement of business and personal goals.

The focus is on individuals becoming more self-aware and identifying how others impact on ourselves and how we impact on other people. Our ability to understand ourselves and others, increases our ability to become for personally effective and influential.

Personal effectiveness and communication skills are key to delivering in our job role, interacting with people, team working and developing teams and individuals. Further development in these skills will have an impact on many areas of day-to-day work e.g. meetings, problem solving; time-management; decision-making and all aspects of communication.

Delegates will have an opportunity to focus on their own personal effectiveness and style and through this, further develop their interpersonal skills.

Each delegate will receive a personal profile, which provides them with information on their personality type, as an aid to understand more about self and others. This will then be used to identify strategies for enhancing personal effectiveness and influence. The Profile will be used as a working document throughout the programme as a basis for self-analysis and group discussions. Delegates may then go on to use it as a personal development tool.

Appraisals which are planned, structured and implemented effectively allow managers to improve communications within their team and improve on training and development plans. This course teaches delegates how to manage appraisals and PDR's effectively.

Assertiveness is the quality of being self-assured and confident without being aggressive. Assertive individuals are able to get their point across without upsetting others, or becoming upset themselves. This course focuses on understanding the difference between aggressive, passive and assertive behaviours to improve personal communication effectiveness.

Effective teamwork is fundamental to the success of any organisation. Whether the focus is on service, quality, cost, value, speed, efficiency, performance, or other similar goals, teams are the central methodology of most organisations in the private, non-profit, and government sectors.

With teams at the core of corporate strategy, your success as an organisation can often depend on how well you and other team members operate together.

In most teams, the energies of individual members work at cross-purposes. Individuals may work extraordinarily hard, but their efforts do not translate into team effort, and this results in wasted energy. By contrast, when a team becomes more aligned, a commonality of direction emerges, and individual energies harmonise. You have a shared vision and an understanding of how to complement each others’ efforts.

This one-day workshop is a basic course for team leaders and team members, designed to focus on the characteristics of an effective team player and the elements of an effective team. You will leave the workshop with plans for your personal development as a team player and ideas for developing your team.

A one day programme focused on written business communication.

To write effectively requires knowledge of the process for constructing written business communications. When applied to various types of written communication such as a report, presentation, memo, letter, e-mail, this knowledge helps produce clear, concise, unambiguous communications.

The programme provides delegates with a chance to obtain the knowledge, test its application, and thus become more confident when faced with a written communication task at work.

Conflicts can be resolved peacefully and effectively. Peacefully discussing differences of opinion is a healthy way to bring important issues to light and strengthen your relationships with co-workers, managers and suppliers, as well as friends and significant others. This course helps delegates learn how to effectively handle conflict in a way that minimises stress and relieves tension.

Good customer care depends on the attitudes and skills of each individual employee. Without it few businesses succeed. People at all levels need to understand how communication works from the customer's perspective and to get an understanding of the best way to approach individual customers.

This course will give the participants the opportunity to develop the skills to deal with difficult and aggressive behaviour. Delegates will have the opportunity to examine the phases of aggressive behaviour and develop an approach to remain in control. They will be able to identify triggers which may provoke an incident; understand the tactics for dealing with the situation and methods to deal with the aftermath.

Being able to let go and delegate tasks to others can be one of the hardest managerial responsibilities. The temptation is just to do it yourself – right? You think it will be quicker after all you're likely to do a much better and quicker job and you simply haven’t got the time to show someone else.

Wrong - lack of delegation will lead to you slowly drowning in work. Tasks will become half-finished or poorly executed and you will end up with a disgruntled and demotivated team who are crying out to take on more responsibility.

This one-day course will give you the confidence to let go of tasks without losing control and give you the skills to use delegation as a motivational tool to increase performance. Understand your own management styles to develop the potential of your staff, yourself and ultimately your organisation.

The course will be participatory and will include self-analysis tools, case studies and group work.

This course is designed for supervisors and first line managers who are new to their roles.

This course aims to introduce supervisors and first line managers to their new roles, developing particular awareness and skills in the areas of leadership style, motivation and delegation.

This modular programme is designed to further develop the skills of managers and potential managers. Building leadership capabilities across this level should not only strengthen individual skills but also facilitate the transfer of best practice across the organisation.

Between each workshop delegates will be given work assignments to reinforce and embed the skills learned at each workshop. Recognising the busy nature of the delegates role, the design of these assignments will be thought provoking and practical rather than time consuming.

Each module comes with its own set of support notes for delegates to put into a ring-binder, which then builds up into a comprehensive management reference book.

This highly interactive and practical programme will give delegates an opportunity to learn more about themselves and the different working styles of others to increase individual and team effectiveness. They will be working as individuals, in pairs or small groups, engaging with each other to explore the different approaches. Building a team successfully requires awareness and understanding of the needs for a balanced team. This programme has been designed to give delegates both insight and time to explore their personal preferences, highlighting the benefits of getting the correct balance between both managing the task and leading the team.

CLARITY 4D PROFILES

As an optional extra, each delegate will receive either an 11 page Clarity4D Personal Profile or a 20 page Team Profile (recommended).

The Profile includes sections on:

Personal style and interacting with others

Personal strengths and areas of hidden potential

The aim of this course is to identify stress in self and others and what we can do to manage this that promotes a positive health and wellbeing culture at work.
