Communication Skills Training

Do you ever feel like people don't understand you? Like you're very clearly communicating what you want to get across and they're just not getting it?

You're not alone. Miscommunications can lead to all sorts of challenges at work and at home. When your words are misunderstood, it causes hurt feelings, delayed projects and lost business, and damaged relationships.

It may not be your fault that they don't understand you. After all, there are a variety of learning and communication styles out there that you may not even be aware exist... so how are you supposed to leverage them?

If you'd like to improve your leadership and your relationships at work and at home, learning to properly communicate with the people in your life is essential.

About Our Communication Training Program for Employees and Managers

Power Communication is an experiential-based training program that will change the way you interact with those around you. Through this multiple-day course, you'll learn how to more effectively engage, communicate, and build rapport with everyone you come in contact with.

In Power Communication, you'll learn about the different communication styles, how to identify yours (and others), and how to adapt your speaking to better relate to those around you. You'll discover how to create rapport with others through your communication (both verbal and non-verbal), and how building this trust can open doors. The course will teach you how to produce win-win outcomes when faced with challenges by getting everyone on the same team and on the same page. Finally, you'll learn to take responsibility for what you say and how you say it.

Power Communication Is More Than Just a Course

Why Our Training Works

The impact of Rapport’s Training

Creating individual behavioral change, especially sustainable change, is the most difficult ambition of nearly all training programs. Rapport Leadership International has created a series of training and development courses that implement proven practices for creating true performance change. The processes and delivery are the catalysts for changing behavior. The following practices are the reason Rapport’s training has an immediate and ongoing impact on behavior, productivity, and performance.

SELF AWARENESS

Learning begins when individuals become aware of their self-limiting behaviors, their strengths, and the many opportunities they have for personal growth. Rapport provides the opportunity for participants to “look in the mirror” and assess their performance. During the class, there is time for exercise debriefing, journaling, and quiet reflection. Ongoing processes ask the participant what the learning entails and how to apply it in their lives. Bottom-line, people must have self-awareness in order to make meaningful and lasting changes.

"As a result of the training from Rapport, not only does the culture continue to be powerful here; the leaders gain skills on how to develop rapport with their team members. Turnover is almost nonexistent here."

PRACTICE & EXPERIENCE

In sports, athletes practice skills and techniques in order to improve performance. Through practice and experience, performance is enhanced and it continues to improve. In the same manner, everything Rapport teaches about leadership is through an experiential process that correlates directly to a leadership attribute and behavior. Rather than just discussing or lecturing on a variety of leadership traits, all participants of Rapport training experience and practice leadership behaviors such as accountability, communication, enthusiasm, focus, passion, taking action, teamwork and trust. It is through these experiences that improved performance results.

FEEDBACK & COACHING

Additionally in sports, providing coaching and feedback to an individual offers insight into one’s behavior. Rapport’s classes are dedicated to giving individual attention and coaching to every participant. For this reason, class sizes remain small. At Rapport, our trainers are coaches. In every course, they offer coaching and feedback that is honest, direct, instant, and one-on-one. This feedback is designed to empower the participant and move each forward to his/her own next level of performance. Great coaches have the power to unleash the potential of individuals by seeing qualities that they may not see for themselves.

MOTIVATION

The key to motivation is not simply to motivate the participant; rather, it is to allow a student to discover, uncover, and tap into his or her own internal motivators. At Rapport, our processes allow students to identify what is important to them. Graduates walk away inspired, focused, and internally driven.

"Rapport has a no nonsense, common sense, logical approach to training and coaching and it works."

ANCHORS

Anchors are words, phrases, or movements used as a prompt to recall behaviors, emotions, or experiences. At Rapport, anchors are used so after the training, participants have quick, easy ways to recall and apply specific leadership competencies. For example, when a student completes a training process that anchors-in taking action, this anchor is readily accessible for application in any decision-making process.

"My relationship with my family is better than ever and I couldn’t be happier about that! Since I came back, my whole attitude has change as well as my goals and ambitions in life."

INTENSE EXPERIENCE

The purpose of all training is to help change behavior. The challenge is overcoming years of habit. In Rapport classes, students experience a range of emotions. Quite simply, the emotions verify that our exercises are connecting on a deep level to something that is meaningful to participants. From this connection comes the recognition of what was and of what can be in the future by changing behavior.

"I never would have taken this step without the training I received at Rapport. Thank you, and thank you for always checking in."
