PMI-RMP Exam Prep: In-House Training

<h2>Project Communication Skills: In-House Training</h2>
<p>Communication is the single most critical project success factor. When effective, projects get executed on time, within budget, and with objectives being met. But that isn't all. Strong communication also nurtures healthy team relationships. And in today's highly diverse world, where projects are often fast-paced, complex, and virtual, that is more important than ever. Strong communication skills foster cultural awareness, trust, and empathy. Together, they contribute greatly to project success-and ultimately, to future project success.</p>
<p>In this course, participants will actively explore best communication practices from a variety of perspectives: in-person, virtual, electronic, and via formal project documentation. In order to be transformative, however, those perspectives will be filtered further through the lens of their formal, personalized assessment. It is a powerful tool which identifies individuals' internal needs and priorities. It translates those into descriptive profiles and reports, gifting users with valuable information about themselves and others. Paired with the course's real-world activities, it will provide uniquely strategic opportunities for communicating effectively and meaningfully-and with less conflict, both personally and professionally.</p><h3>What You Will Learn</h3>
<p>At the end of this program, you will be able to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Identify basic elements of communication and explain how they affect teams</li>
<li>Explore how your assessment style impacts you and how you communicate with people of other styles</li>
<li>Infer how your style impacts the way(s) you send and interpret emails and instant messages</li>
<li>Analyze real world email and instant messaging practices to determine how they affect communication and relationships</li>
<li>Explore best practices for formal project communications and presentations</li>
<li>Analyze how your assessment style and global diversity can contribute to both strong team communication and conflict</li>
<li>Identify solutions for virtual team work communication challenges</li>
