Champion Clarity in Communication

Business analysis is the people business; we need to work effectively with people!
 
Human beings are a complex mix of past experiences, expectations, assumptions, beliefs, values and much more. We carry these with us in our connections with each other. Differences can create a perfect storm that disrupts the intended messages. Effective teams talk through all situations, feedback is constant, whether or not you recognize it.
 

Communication is a critical skill to enable productive conversations and interactions between each other. The ability to talk through conflicts, give constructive feedback, and solve problems is a differentiating skill. We are constantly communicating as teams; stand ups, interviews, workshops, retrospectives and more.  Join me to learn techniques to cut through the communication noise in any situation.

Learnng Objectives:​

  • How to give and receive feedback to build each other up.
  • Make connections that will improve your working (and personal!) relationships.
