Overview/Description
Although relatively straightforward in theory, the process that transforms effective listening into successful communication requires great skill, awareness and practice. In the course of this simulation, you will attend a day-long seminar, studying the topic of Effective Listening through various exercises, lectures, quizzes and small-group activities.
The day's events will be guided by an instructor, and your fellow conference attendees will be business professionals from various fields and experience levels. Though geared toward bettering communication and listening in a business setting, the seminar environment is casual, offering a safe and stress-free forum for self-evaluation and interaction.
This simulation is based on the SkillSoft Series "Effective Listening" and has links to the following courses: comm_03_a01_bs_enus, comm_03_a02_bs_enus, and comm_03_a04_bs_enus.
NOTE: For portions of this simulation, note paper and a pen or pencil are required.
Target Audience
Business professionals at all levels of an organization. This simulation is particularly useful to those who need strong listening skills to be effective in the workplace.
