Women in Leadership: Powerful Communications and Presentations

1-DAY COURSE

The ability to communicate in a clear and relatable way is essential for everyone in a leadership position. Whether we’re privately speaking with an employee about a performance issue or giving a presentation to executives, we must stay on message and be confident. In this one-day class, we’ll discuss best practices for one-on-one conversations, staff meetings, and formal presentations to executives.

The course meets the requirements of Government Code 19995.4(c) of 20-hours of continuing professional education biennially for all levels of supervisors in state service.
