Communication Skills
Advanced True Colors Workshop
Communication Skills True Colors Workshop makes you ...
Think of the people you interact with throughout your day. Do you find some are a pleasure to communicate with, while others can be difficult? What about you? Have you ever felt misunderstood or that your contributions were not fully appreciated?
Understanding the distinctive ways in which different personalities approach communication is a key ingredient to success at work and in your personal life. We send messages with our gestures, facial expressions, intonations, humor, eye contact, and so much more. Some individuals are incredibly expressive, while others more reserved in emotion or animation. Some like to warm up to a conversation, others favor getting straight to the point.
With so many different approaches, how can we possibly get our message across in a mutually beneficial way? Knowing the common communication patterns of each personality style helps you recognize the value of different approaches. Instead of simply tolerating uncomfortable behavior, you’ll open up lines of communication and foster synergy by welcoming diverse input and honoring a variety of contributions.
When you learn the keys to True Communication, you’ll have the know-how to reduce friction and increase your personal effectiveness by expressing yourself and listening to others in ways that bring out the best in everyone.
Communication is more than just the words we speak.

Workshop Length:
Half (1/2) day or a full day (full day program allows for more exercises and group work)Offsite and Onsite Workshop Locations:
True Colors workshop locations should provide conditions conducive to openness and learning. Due to the nature of the content of the True Colors Workshop, participants are required to explore their deeper views and beliefs and to engage in a high level of self-disclosure. The ideal setting is one in which,
- Participants can remove themselves from the workday world and stretch their mind without interruptions
- There is natural light and a feeling of openness
- There is room for breakout discusions (breakout rooms are not required if separate workgroups can meet without crowding each other)
We can help arrange the session for your location or work with you to select an appropriate offsite location.
Note: offsite locations may result in additional costs.
