Working collaboratively boosts productivity and gives everyone a stronger sense of purpose. This workshop focuses on the how of collaboration. Effective communication is key to building a collaborative team, supported by emotional intelligence and respect for those both similar and different to ourselves.

Collaboration is especially valuable where relationships need to be developed and sustained over time. The workshop increases your awareness of your preferred influencing style and strengthens your ability to respond to others in an authentic, appropriate way. This enables you to build relationships and influence conversations with greater confidence and sensitivity to the needs of others.

The workshop is highly practical. You will have the opportunity to develop your skills through interactive activities, challenging role-plays with actors, and by demonstrating your influencing style in a meeting. You will also receive feedback and coaching to help you develop greater flexibility.
