Training Proposal:

Effective Communication for Leaders

I. Introduction

In todays fast-paced environment, an effective and adaptable


communication style is essential. Attention spans are short and leaders
may be asked to interact with a myriad of different personalities in a
number of different situations, both personally and professionally. An
effective leader must be able to communicate direction as well as to
participate fruitfully within a team. Studies of some of the worlds most
effective leaders points to the incredible value of efficient and
motivational communication.

In light of this, we designed a seminar to inspire critical thought on


communication style and choices to its participants. This seminar will,
though lecture and discussion and team activities (with debriefs) highlight
some key issues concerning communication, both as a leader and as a
member of a team.

II. Objectives

The objective of this seminar would be that the participants will


learn some effective communication skills as well as the necessity of
audience (group and individual) evaluation to whom are you speaking
and how can you best adapt your style to suit their needs?

The seminar is divided into three topics;

-One-on-one, active listening


-Communication within a team
-Communication skills and styles (or, different strokes for different
folks!)

These goals could be achieved by;

1. Problem-based learning (i.e. participants given situations, scenarios,


problems and have to solve them using the learning objective
outlined above),
2. Group learning/activities (i.e. participants experiencing hands-on
activities to demonstrate learning objectives), and
3. Lecture/Discussion (i.e. 90 minutes of lecture and discussion).

The seminar will include a combination of lecture and discussion, as


well as three activities (a listening/following directions exercise, a group
goal exercise, and communication style exercise) that will then be
debriefed and discussed.
