Course description
Thinking on your Feet - In-house Course
There are times when we all feel we have missed an opportunity, either because we couldn’t think straight, or we couldn’t articulate our ideas in a clear and influential way. This course, for those wishing to interact with others more effectively, helps us to buy thinking time and structure our thoughts. It also focusses on helping us get our point across and articulate more effectively when under pressure.
