Leadership communication is a difficult and complex art form to master.

In addition, you will explore how to manage effective teams and highlight processes for decision-making and discussion that foster a shared perspective and promote a space where good questions can be asked, intentions are clear, and assumptions are tested. As part of this course, participants will:

• Develop an internal communication strategy
• Practice facilitating difficult conversations and managing personnel
• Explore models for decision-making
• Create a blueprint for running effective meetings and assembling strong teams
