About this workshop

Have you ever explained something to your manager that you thought was clear, obvious, and strong, only to have her respond with even more questions? Do you struggle deciding which details to share with an executive or important client? Have you ever sent what you thought was a perfect email only to get no response or to find out that your message actually confused the recipient?

If you struggle with what is key information for your audience or what will elicit a response, this program is for you. 

During this 4-hour workshop you’ll master proven methodologies from certified coach, university professor, and workplace and brand messaging strategist Jane Scudder that will help you refine your communication skills so that your presentations, emails, meetings, and day-to-day conversations are more seamless and effective.

Takeaways

  • Learn how to properly deduce your main message and how to lead with it
  • Understand how to offer more detailed information in a “phased” approach of sharing complicated information
  • Revise an actual communication for improved clarity and effectiveness
  • 1:1 and group feedback on communication style

Prereqs & Preparation

  • Each attendee should bring one real communication s/he is working on and/or currently struggling with
