Thursday, October 11, 2018Conversational Intelligence
North Shore Breakfast
Effective communication is crucial at each level of an organization. It is our conversations and ability to connect with others that are the key determinant of our personal and professional success. However, the most well-meaning, natural conversationalists can experience challenges creating deeper, more impactful transformation with their clients, teams and organizations. Why? Perception is our reality. Therefore, with each exchange that we have, there is an emotional trigger that allows up to open up or shut down.
This presentation will explore Conversational Intelligence.
