Effective Communication 2026

Effective communication

for Leaders, Assistant Leaders and Leaders in Training

This course will encourage leaders to think about the bigger impact of communication whilst exploring which style of communication is the best tool or media for communicating in their circumstances.

This topic aims to encourage leaders to think about the bigger impact of communication – considering body language, tone, listening, and tone of voice in written communication too.

It will empower them to determine which style of communication is the best tool/media for communicating for their circumstances, and introduce the concept of managing difficult conversations.

By the end of this session, participants will:

  • be able to think about the 'bigger picture' when it comes to communication - body language, tone and active listening and what it might mean
  • determine which style of communication would be most appropriate for different audiences and circumstances
  • identify the best tool/media for communicating for their circumstances

Objectives:

  • To illustrate the various 'tells' of communication - eg body language.
  • To demonstrate the impact of different communication styles on different audiences and circumstances

This course is only available if you're over 18.
