Summary:

Communications professionals are expected to model great interpersonal skills.  We are not all naturally confident and assertive, and often find it difficult to say “no” or get others on board with our ideas.   The good news is that these skills are all learnable.   After this course you will have an increased self-awareness, and will benefit from the opportunity to understand and practice some basic assertiveness and influencing techniques that work.    With ongoing practice, these skills can become second nature.  This will reduce your anxiety, help you become more effective in delivering successful outcomes and greatly improve your working relationships.
