Effective Communication in Teams
October 30, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Have you ever wondered why one colleague always wants an agenda to prepare for a meeting, while another needs to understand the big picture before they can begin to work on the small details of a project? Using a free online assessment to explore your Myers-Briggs personality preferences, we’ll focus on how you can leverage a better understanding of others’ preferences to improve your communication with your colleagues.
In preparation for the workshop, please complete two steps.
- Take the free 16Personalities assessment
- Report your results by Thursday, October 24 at 11:59 pm.
This workshop will be highly interactive. We strongly recommend joining the Zoom workshop from a location where you can enable audio and video.
