Communicate effectively with technical people
Good communication is key to achieving high performance in the workplace.
Technical people need to communicate with multiple stakeholders using multiple communication methods.
Each method requires a set of skills to effectively translate the technical information into a language the stakeholder understands.
This course will cover how to excel in written and verbal communication. Surprisingly, even objective technical feedback can be interpreted with mixed emotions depending on the context of the message.
We will learn how to communicate with clarity and avoid the communication pitfalls that create disharmony and confusion. The course provides practical advice on business writing and verbal communication. A framework is provided to master this skill quickly.
Business communication is usually purpose-driven, and the test of effective communication is that the desired business results are achieved, with the key relationships still intact.
You will leave this course with the practical skills to communicate more effectively.
All delegates will receive a copy of the latest edition of "Help! I Need to Master Critical Conversations" by Trevor Manning (Trevor Manning Consultancy Pty Ltd; 1st edition, September 2018).

The history of continuing education at Oxford
Nearly 150 years ago, a movement called 'Oxford Extension' began at the University of Oxford - an initiative that sprang from general educational reforms in the mid-Victorian era, and from a growing national sense of social awareness.
The history of Oxford University's Department for Continuing Education is several stories in one: it's the story of a handful of dedicated Oxford tutors who felt that educational opportunity was essential to the nation's welfare and future;
it's an account of ordinary citizens collaborating with Oxford to design a format of education that served their needs; and it's the story of adult education evolving as successive generations of students, from 1878 to the present day, participated in ever-growing numbers.
The articles below are milestones in our efforts to bring Oxford teaching to the widest possible audience.
