Welcome to the Business Communication Course. I'm glad you've decided to invest your valuable time in your self-development. I promise you, by the end of the course you will be able to take away quite a few strategies to improve your work life. The slides that you will see going forward will be for reference purposes that you can use later. However, it is important that you also listen to what I say as I will be discussing each point in great depth. This course will require you to pay attention to what I say and how you implement the same. I will be using a lot of examples and case studies in each section which will be relatable and thus help you understand more. Feel free to leave your feedback.
So we know what you will be learning going forward. Now let us look at what can you expect out of this course. Then there are 2 important questions I want you to ask yourself. What does Business Communication mean to you? 2. What makes Business Communication important to you?. Although we will be talking about the above questions, communicating with the world will only happen well, if you can communicate clearly with yourself first. So it's important you understand what part of communication do you want to improve on. You will have 2 assignments with the above questions to complete after this section
Here, you will learn the 3 broad types of Communication which will help you understand and implement the right kind of communication at work.
Communication at work happens with many people. Interdepartmental, with clients, with seniors & also with subordinates & peer groups. We shall talk about the approach that is feasible and safe with each team and person. Remember- at work, it's not only about communicating- it is about communicating effectively. An employee is judged at all times but is only conscious before appraisals. Effective Communication helps build the required image.
Another interesting section & one of my favourites. What if you know what's going on in your managers/ colleagues minds?. Life is easy, isn't it! This section talks about knowing people and accordingly framing out our way of communicating. It adds magic!
The 9 step model, if implemented well, is alone sufficient to transform you. Learn this piece well and by heart the principles and implement them well.

You are always appreciated when the client appreciates you. But it takes a lot to satisfy the client needs- well! not really:) Let's look at how we can easily manage the client and keep up the good work only with the power of communication.
Many of us are going through this 'work stress' with the work from home culture. But if you reflect, you will realise- it is not the work that stresses you out. It's the feeling of stress that is stressful. And again- the external factors like people complaining about workload add petrol to the fire. Let's see how we can stay away from these negative reactions and still enjoy our work. But ofcourse - love your work, love your home, and you will be able to get over this work stress- Trust me- I am a working professional too & a working mother :)
It takes a lot to settle down with a perfect work-life balance and if something changes at work, we don't like it. This is another reason why we quit. But change comes with many benefits to us as an individual. It's just the way we look at it. In this lecture, we will see how an employee at all levels can benefit from the changes. You'll love changes
Many professionals hate to present on the projector and communicate any proposal to the client. It's difficult :(. Well!. let's see how we can make it interesting and easy - just 5 steps and you are sorted
