Leading Effective Teams Certificate Series
Successful collaboration takes place when team leaders build a supportive climate with positive communication and constructive feedback. Through a variety of activities and discussions, you will examine your role as a communicator. After completing the online DiSC Communication Style Assessment, you will receive a personal report to use in class and back at work. You will learn to build a positive communication environment by giving constructive feedback, handling defensiveness, and listening effectively.
