Overview:

Listening is not automatic; it's an intentional skill. Leaders often think they're listening, but true listening requires presence, curiosity, and restraint.

You'll learn how to listen beyond the spoken words, recognize emotional cues, and respond thoughtfully.

Just as listening is not automatic, effective communication is not automatic either. The good news is that listening and communicating are skills you can learn in this webinar as you absorb the principles of blending emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and strategy.

Every conversation involves both a public face and private thoughts, and the space between them determines how authentic you appear to others. This session helps you align those two realities so your communication reflects honesty and integrity.

We'll also explore how your brain is wired from the perspective of right and left brains and personality differences that affect interpretation and reaction. You'll discover what feels direct to one person might feel abrasive to another. Understanding these dynamics will help you tailor your style to connect effectively with opposite personalities.

Why should you Attend: This program will help you transform communication from a daily necessity into a strategic leadership advantage enabling you to influence outcomes, strengthen relationships, and lead with confidence.

By the end of this program, you'll be equipped to:
  • Turn conversations into two-way dialogues that build understanding and trust
  • Listen with intention and discern what's not being said
  • Manage conflict by balancing empathy with accountability
  • Use nonverbal signals to reinforce your message and leadership presence
  • Communicate with clarity and conviction to inspire action and results

Areas Covered in the Session: Through practical techniques rooted in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), you'll learn how to separate emotion from interpretation, manage your internal dialogue, and keep communication productive even in stressful situations. In addition, you'll learn how to:
  • Manage difficult conversations and conflict with poise and purpose
  • Be authentic as you address issues directly while maintaining respect and empathy
  • Turn moments of tension into opportunities for growth and alignment
  • Assess left-brain logic versus right-brain emotion and how this factor affects instructions and interpretations
  • Read the nonverbal signals of others and use your body language to reinforce your message
  • Maintain composure and confidence even in high-stakes or conflict-heavy discussions
  • Develop the discipline of active, empathetic listening
  • Recognize and manage your inner dialogue to stay calm, clear, and confident even during difficult conversations
  • Strengthen emotional intelligence on a daily basis
  • Adjust your communication style based on personality differences
  • Craft messages that influence and inspire, moving people to action rather than compliance
  • Manage defensiveness - both your own and others'- to keep conversations constructive
  • Communicate difficult feedback in a way that encourages growth instead of resistance
  • Ask questions strategically to guide conversations toward understanding and solutions

Register for this webinar and master the art of influence, dialogue, listening deeply, and communicating with authenticity. You'll build stronger relationships that inspire commitment, and drive meaningful results, hallmarks of truly exceptional leadership.
