Communicating as a Leader  

Topics covered:

  • Finding the Right Balance between Business and People

Instructor: Andrea Duran 

Course Pre-Work: Prior to this training, we ask that you complete the Emotional Intelligence Self-Assessment that can be found on pages 16-18 in the participant guide. Since it is a self-reflection, timing will vary, but our estimate is 5 – 15min. Once you’ve completed the assessment, add your insights to page 8. We will ask volunteers to share during the session.
