Voices of Managers

Many managers arrive at their positions without specialist professional development of effective communication skills and presentation skills.

As a manager, you are constantly under pressure.  Each day brings fresh demands.

In any moment you must be responsive to strategic operations; multiple details; people; events; 'phone calls; crises; decisions; meetings and opportunities. 

You rely on a voice that must be primed, pumped, powerful and people-oriented.

Senior management roles in many organisations require a seamless blend of leadership and management skills.  Do you consistently apply full voice dexterity when you:

• Deliver invigorating briefings
• Conduct meetings that achieve their purpose
• Provide arresting feedback that achieves lasting behaviour changes
• Use your ACE Factor when managing difficult situations and people

Voice & Word equips you to harness your voice power to inspire, instruct, command and convince.  With you, we work precisely on the vocal skills you must apply in management contexts.  Develop skills in voice, vocal presence and power.  Capture the power of your voice, gesture and word choices as you develop advanced engagement skills.

Explore our Focus on Excellence approach as a just-in-time learning strategy.

And remember this. When your communication strategies unravel and become stuck, there is an answer.  James Glenn, a colleague of mine, resolves really difficult conflict situations that seem impossible to fix.  Somehow, he always seems to manage it.  James is a specialist in Conflict Resolution and Negotiation Skills.  You can read more about him and his work at Negotiation Beyond Conflict.

It is possible to banish communication barriers.  Avoid the flow-on effect from internal communication barriers and breakdowns.  Preserve valuable external relationships.  Get your voice to work in sync with your communication practices.
