Online Training: Here's why your communication style is costing your business

In the fast-paced world of business, first impressions matter. The way you present yourself in the initial 30 seconds of a serious conversation, and whether your message truly resonates can make or break the engagement.

If you've ever found yourself grappling with these aspects of communication, seasoned expert Hanrie Fridjhon is here to help.

With over 27 years of experience in the field of communication, Hanrie, the founder of Pro-Active Communications, is on a mission to transform the way we connect with one another. Her goal is to make communication more accessible and effective, and she's achieving this through an innovative training program offered by the Cape Chamber.

"What I'm saying to you is not always what you are hearing... and while communication is supposed to be easy, we all know it's not," she said.

Hanrie recognizes that this disconnect in communication arises from the divergence in worldviews and perceptions that each of us carries.

In the context of the business world, this communication complexity can be a hindrance to success. Hanrie's course delves deep into these intricacies, offering strategies that will empower you to communicate more effectively and make those crucial first impressions count.

The course offers a comprehensive view of the ever-evolving landscape of communication. It explores the vital topic of generational communication and understanding how different generations prefer to connect.

It further addresses critical questions such as understanding how people perceive you and why your message might not always have the desired impact. Moreover, the course focuses how can you tweak your communication style to leave a lasting, positive impression.
