Speak – Write – Present

With The Communication Academy from Indigo

No matter what job you do, you will:

  • Speak to a customer.
  • Interact with colleagues.
  • Be caught on the spot by the boss.
  • Write emails.
  • Create business documents (report, web pages, etc.)
  • Present to a group of customers or an unknown audience.

All of these forms of verbal and written communication create an impression, which, when positive, provides you and your organisation with an inclusive environment and a competitive advantage.

An example of a programme we've developed:

A large financial services organisation sought to enhance the way its leadership team communicated with one another – aiming to bring the whole team to the same level, foster mutual understanding of each other's communication styles, and identify effective ways to collaborate for the benefit of the organisation. 

We developed a one-day leadership programme that focused on understanding personalities and how individuals need to be communicated with; combining that with communication tools and techniques that add impact, influence, and support conflict and resolution management.

The success of the delivery has meant that the organisation is expanding the programme to include senior and junior managers, with a plan to incorporate a fundamentals of good communication module into their induction programme.
