Featured Workshop

dsc04091

Communication and Feedback training for Engineers and Tech Companies

As technically competent individuals get promoted and progress through the business, their communication and feedback competencies need to grow too!

This workshop was born out of necessity for our client’s needs. Our clients were seeing on multiple occasions, all across the business, that communication and feedback skills weren’t keeping up. This was causing a breakdown in communication, inefficiencies, burnout and unhappy employees.

This workshop focuses on upskilling individuals to meet the needs of the business. Attendees will learn why this is important to their role, tangible skills and the tactics to have essential conversations.

Let’s upskill your team’s communication skills so that it’s as good as their technical abilities.

FAQs

At Positive Impact, we curate an ideal environment for people to succeed. This includes elements of psychological safety for attendees to be at their best and bring their best selves to each session. Facilitators help groups work together more effectively. They plan, guide, and manage learning content to ensure that the group’s objectives are met effectively, with clear thinking, good participation, and buy-in from everyone involved. They remain neutral and focus on enabling the group to take control and responsibility for the outcome.

A facilitator can be an essential part of any process where there’s a need for collaboration, team building, or problem-solving. They can help improve meetings, workshops, and discussions by encouraging participation and interaction, managing conflicts, and ensuring that everyone’s ideas and thoughts are heard. If your team struggles with making decisions, reaching consensus, or is going through a significant change, a facilitator could be very beneficial.

While it’s possible for someone within your company to act as a facilitator, there are advantages to hiring an external one. An external facilitator brings a fresh perspective, impartiality, and has no vested interests. They can manage the process objectively and ensure everyone in the group has an equal voice. Positive Impact’s facilitators bring the combined experience of working with over 110,000 people globally and will provide learnings and perspectives that will be beneficial to your company.

You should look for a facilitator who has experience working with companies of your size and in your industry. It’s crucial to check their credentials, ask for references, and request a detailed proposal outlining their approach to your specific needs. A good facilitator should also be able to adapt to the unique dynamics of your team and have a range of techniques to manage different situations.

The cost of hiring a facilitator can vary, depending on the complexity of the project, the duration of the facilitation and the amount of attendees. Positive Impact will provide a detailed proposal and quote after discussing the specifics of the project with you. If you’re curious, please drop us a question. We’d love to hear from you.

Positive Impact facilitators are trained in conflict resolution and are experienced in managing situations where there are disagreements or tensions within a group. They create an environment where all voices can be heard and conflicts can be navigated in a respectful and productive way.

The facilitator’s role is not to make decisions but rather to guide the group to make their own decisions. Facilitators provide structure to discussions and help to ensure that all voices are heard, all perspectives are considered, and a consensus can be reached. They do this while maintaining an impartial stance to avoid influencing the decision-making process.

We’d love to hear from you.
