PHSC 442 - Interpersonal Skills

(2)

Skills such as negotiation, written and verbal communication, managing meetings, facilitation, influencing without authority and assertiveness are often key determinants of success in the workplace. In order to teach students how to be more effective in their careers, students will be coached and evaluated on their ability to plan, conduct and/or facilitate meetings, generate effective communications, and foster effective listening, assertion, and influencing skills. Strategies that are successful during conflictive encounters will be stressed. In addition, students will be exposed to effective techniques used in the selection, mentoring, and management of employees including gender and culture differences.
