Get the best from every conversation

How to Communicate Effectively

Learn how to get better results in virtually any situation where you’d like to have more influence or impact. This illuminating and informative course outlines the principles of Effective Communication, and shows you how to build your skills.

It explains clearly how to structure your conversations to engage others and get the outcomes you want. The video role-plays also show why our attempts to communicate often fail, and how to avoid the pitfalls.

You’ll learn how to prepare for an important conversation and how to deliver even the most difficult message with confidence and sensitivity.

By the end of the course, you’ll have new insights to refresh your communications; you may well be thinking, “I wish that I’d been taught this in school.”

As the different aspects are explained via our video lectures, each section is supported by downloadable exercises and other resources to help you revise and consolidate the learning.

More than talk

We all know of people who can talk a lot but say very little. At the other end of the spectrum, there are those whose uttering and emails are so terse that you have trouble deciphering them.

Empathetic and effective communication requires sensitivity and lightness of touch, and you can learn how to develop all the skills you need so that others will want to engage with you and hear what you have to say.

Even difficult messages can be delivered without needless pain and unpleasant reactions. All it takes is the know-how.

This course features easily learned elements of effective communication, supported by practical exercises, all clearly explained.

The presenter is Barry Winbolt, lecturer and psychotherapist. The course is based on his 30 years’ experience of helping people to improve their communications, relationships, and performance in many different settings and cultures.

He’ll take you through what it means to communicate well and:

How to set the scene for maximum engagement
That your attitude comes before success
How to listen with empathy and build rapport
Why ‘less is more’ when the message is right
That you must be congruent and mean what you say
Matching the verbal and non-verbal parts of the message
How to tell people things they might not want to hear
How to plan your message for maximum effect
How to follow up on a conversation.

Communicating so that your message is understood as intended is an essential skill. It’s never too late to start, and you’ll also be taking steps to improving your life.

Your Instructor

Barry Winbolt MSc.(Tr)

There’s always something you can do if you have the right information and the right guidance. I provide personal and professional training and coaching to help you get a better handle on yourself, a relationship, and life in general.

My strapline “Life doesn’t have to be like that” comes from the idea that – given the right information and a bit of encouragement – we can fix a lot of life’s irritants ourselves.

My courses always include plenty of practical advice that you can apply right away. I use a solution-focused, problem-solving approach because I want everything I deliver to be useful, practical, and effective.
