Managing Up, Down and Across is the everyday tool for building better relationships, seeing what’s needed, and managing actions to get results. In today’s fast-paced society, learning the art of communication, relationship management, and anticipating needs at every level is essential to succeed in the workplace and maintain a sense of balance and control.  

This all-day training workshop will teach participants the skills to set and manage expectations using effective communication to proactively identify what’s needed, and how to respond to others in a positive, win-win-focused manner.  Skills covered will include “reading between the lines” to understand what isn’t said, understanding other’s perspectives and how it impacts you, as well as how to use this information to create the “Big Picture.”

Key Takeaways:

• Learning to recognize communication barriers and how to remove them
• Developing a listening strategy to understand the perspectives of others
• Building and maintaining working relationships using effective communication
