Authentic Communication

Becoming more confident in your communication

It’s not always easy to explain what you mean or to say directly what you feel. This can apply to both work and private situations. How do you make sure you use the right words? In the Training Authentic Communication – Coaching Circle you will learn techniques and skills that will help you to become more confident and interesting in your communication. The Training also focuses on the communication with yourself and the deeper, subconscious layers that control your communication. In both theoretical and practical sessions you will learn more about yourself and others in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere.

Coaching Circle

In this training we use NLP Communication Techniques and Models. Practical and applicable psychology that teaches you how communication and behaviour come about and which processes are at the base of this. Because of the small group size there is also room for personal questions and there will be enough time to work on them. Thus, the training is a combination of coaching and training in which several techniques will be applied: apart from NLP there is also room for other techniques such as Sytemic work. In the training we will focus on your goals and the techniques, coaching and training will offer you insights which you can benefit from (now and in the future).

The Programme

Each afternoon we will focus on a different topics. These are some of the topics we will discuss:

• Presenting yourself briefly and presenting techniques;
• Express your feelings in language and control your mood;
• Summarizing clearly and concisely;
• Verbal versus non-verbal communication;
