Skills Development Workshop

Communication is something which all of us do from the very first day of our life, yet there is a

question that haunts us most of the time Did I express myself correctly in such and such situation?

The answer to this question is really tricky, because in some cases we leave our signatures and

good impression but in some others we even fail to get our idea clearly. It happens mostly because

we dont know how to act in certain situations. Every time we fail we dont lose completely, we do

learn something, but prior knowledge of the same thing could be more beneficial because then we

could have turned that failure into success.

The course / workshop would focus at many aspects of personality, like:

Building positive relationships with peers & seniors Building self-confidence & Developing clear communication skills Exploring and working on factors that help or hinder effective interpersonal

communication

Learning impacts of non-verbal behavior & Dealing with difficult situations and difficultpeople

Workshops Consists of Following Activities:

Personality Development Group Discussions & Debates Seminar & Presentations Case Studies & Analysis Corporate Communication HR & Interview Skills Management Games & Simulations Aptitude, Logical & Reasoning Assessments & Development
