Accolade Workshop: Communication and Influencing
With Nicola Jones, Athena Professional
In this interactive session, we will explore the skills needed to work with others effectively, with particular emphasis on communication and influencing skills.
How can we ensure that we play our part in making positive communication possible? And how can we 鈥渕anage up鈥 without annoying or competing with others? In this interactive session, we will work through some communication challenges and consider some strategies for playing our part effectively. There is no 鈥渇airy dust鈥 or magic formula for making working relationships a success, especially during a pandemic crisis. We can, however, learn ways to self-manage which can help, and at the very least enable us to do our best.
At the end of this session participants will have:
-
- Reflected on their evidence-based approach to career development
- Discussed the importance of rapport in human relationships and identified ways to establish and build rapport with colleagues
- Explored strategies for influencing colleagues and 鈥渕anaging up鈥 when appropriate
