Leadership

Executive Communication Skills: Leading The Process Of Change

Dynamic Presentation of Leadership Theory and Practical Approaches to Improving Your Interpersonal Skills and Relationships

Overview

The fast-paced agenda of this seminar moves between videotaped role-play sessions that build your interpersonal communication skills and leadership sessions that provide tools for overcoming barriers to change in your organization.

The seminar combines practical knowledge of the key concepts of leadership with the interactive skills that are essential to communication. Video sessions involve small teams, each with a skilled facilitator from the Federal Executive Institute’s cadre of xperienced team leaders. Scenarios based on real-world experiences highlight key components of interpersonal communication, followed by feedback from colleagues and facilitators. In the leadership sessions, you will learn how to guide your organization into the future. You will focus on your own work experiences and how they relate to your development as a leader; however, you will also learn from others: analyzing video clips from popular films, hearing brief lectures, and participating in large- and small-group discussions. With one faculty member for every four or five executives, you are guaranteed personal attention.
