Using Conversational Intelligence at Work – Workshop Overview
Many believe that the key to success in both work and life is mastering communication. Exceptional communicators demonstrate traits such as emotional intelligence, strong interpersonal skills, and persuasive negotiation abilities. They continuously refine their communication style and stay open to new approaches—constantly “sharpening the saw.”
A growing area of interest in today’s business world is the field of neuroscience. Judith Glaser, author of the first book on Conversational Intelligence, defines it as:
“The intelligence hardwired into every human being to enable us to navigate successfully with others.”
