Positive Language for Positive Results (Online)

It‘s not what you say, it‘s how you say it (or write it).
Whether you communicate orally, or in writing, the way you express yourself will impact on the results you get. Even when you are conveying unpleasant news, the impact can be softened by the use of what we call positive language. In this course we‘ll explore how your communication style, and the actual words and phrases you use, impact on the message and the results you get.
You will learn simple techniques to rephrase your message to get a positive response.
This course is taught online. Start anytime. No concession.
