Description

Objectives

With this course, you will develop high-level active listening and linguistic competence based on specific techniques you can apply in different areas of human interactions, such as one-to-one conversations, meetings and public speaking. Furthermore, this model can foster communication skills in assertiveness, negotiation, conflict management, persuasion, and coaching.

This linguistic competence takes its root in theories such as the meta-model linguistic theory, Humanistic Psychology, NLP, Socratic questions, critical thinking, and neuroscience.
