Open Communication: Using Assessment Results to Practice Openness Skills

Description:

Join us as Priyanka Coats, Director of Corporate Training at Shelter Insurance Companies leads us in an interactive workshop designed to elevate your communication skills, whether addressing a large audience or engaging in one-on-one conversations. This session will utilize an assessment to develop self-awareness and foster stronger relationships.

Through the lens of the assessment’s results, we’ll explore the dynamics of trust and openness, helping you understand how your communication style impacts your interactions with others. Participants will engage in meaningful discussions and hands-on activities that stretch their willingness to be open while communicating in a safe space.
