The importance of Interpersonal Effectiveness: With an ever-increasing reliance on virtual methods of communication, particularly email, the opportunity to practise and develop one’s interpersonal skills in a professional context has diminished. When situations arise which require something other than written communication, whether it be delivering a difficult message, handling a complaint or issue or building a relationship with a new colleague or client, employees sometimes find that they lack the key interpersonal skills required to achieve the necessary result.
The importance of good interpersonal skills in the workplace cannot be underestimated. The ability to build rapport and trust, to present oneself and one’s ideas with clarity and professionalism and to be able to handle challenging situations is invaluable.
Communicaid’s Interpersonal Effectiveness programme will provide delegates with the opportunity to refresh and develop these core interpersonal skills in a lively, open and highly interactive environment, enabling them to become more confident and effective interpersonally.
