Training Programs
Improving the communications skills of people managers, and oriented to driving strategic thinking and effective communications behaviours.
Target Audience:
Managers, supervisors, and leaders in any organization: particularly effective in supporting imminent or ongoing change.
Content &Methodology:
The Manager is the Medium® is a highly interactive, intensive and results driven program on a platform of current adult learning principles.
Through a combination of facilitator-led discussion and practical, hands-on, exercises, participants:
- discover the importance and benefits of effective two way communication;
- learn the principles of strategic communication and how to apply them;
- develop an understanding of the nature of communications tools and tactics, and how to select and use them strategically; and
- learn how to implement a Communications Covenant©--the foundation on which they will build improved relationships with their own work teams, as well as their own managers, colleagues and clients/customers.
The program is customized and tailored to address organizational needs and communications-based issues.
Course Materials:
Participants receive a comprehensive and customized workbook that includes classroom materials, a tool box, process maps and feedback questionnaires.
Delivery:
The Manager is the Medium is geared for delivery to groups of 15-20 participants over one and one-half days. The first day is followed one to two weeks later by a half day, allowing participants time to apply the new learning and to complete two workplace-related assignments.
We have a number of certified trainers across Canada. Organizations with more than 200 participants can find cost efficiencies in our train-the-trainer certification program.
This workshop and workshop materials are available in both French (Vision Gestion) and English.
