Overview
What you will study
Have you ever had one of those conversations where you think you and your peer are both on the same page, only to walk away and later realize that couldn't be further from the truth. We hear you - communication is hard. It is also an essential component of effective leadership.
In the Communication and Conflict Resolution course offered by Athabasca University , we'll explore the role perception plays in how we communicate and discuss strategies for ensuring not only that we are being heard, but that we are really hearing others as well. We will then apply these new communication strategies to managing conflict in the workplace, both diffusing and harnessing it to inspire creativity and innovation among your team.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- Articulate the role of perception in basic communication
- Practice core principles of effective communication across your organization
- Adopt active listening skills to ensure understanding
- Reframe conflict to support innovation and creativity
- De-escalate conflict when it turns negative
