The Four Elements of Communication
The Four Elements of Business and The Four Elements of Communication workshops are courses for people who deal with other people in teams and individually. They have been used effectively by people who run businesses, trainers and the self-employed. The courses are based on a deep but simple understanding of the dynamic of groups or teams.
It is important that each of us finds out what are our particular strengths in groups (i.e. our element, our contribution) and that we find out the strengths in groups of people who are not like us (i.e., their element, their contribution and our appreciation of that contribution).
The Four Elements of Business is a workshop about group/team contribution profiling. It then takes this understanding into an examination of group process, i.e. how to get the best out of a group or team and how to dynamically move it from idea to completion. It also covers the vital skills of effective communication with different personality types in groups and teams.
The Four Elements of Communication is similar, but has a greater emphasis on communication.
I have used the Four Elements’ profiling technique and its understanding of process for over 20 years putting together film crews from 4 people to 125. The Four Elements’ process has seen me complete all projects happily on time and on budget. I have equally used this same technique effectively in management training and career planning for over 15 years.
THE FOUR ELEMENTS OF COMMUNICATION
Saturday 19th November at The Woolshed
9.00am-4.30pm Cost $100 + GST or koha
Facilitator: Pamela Meekings-Stewart
How to relate to people you don’t relate to by recognising your own element and that of others and learning some key words and phrases to get you on side!
This one-day Workshop is similar to The Four Elements of Business workshops I have held previously but it will have a greater emphasis on communication. The topics to be covered will be:
* Finding your element (Fire, Water, Air or Earth), its qualities and contribution to the whole
* Learning to identify and appreciate the element of others and the contribution they make to the whole
* Fire, Water, Air and Earth expressed as a Season and as a cyclical, holistic process
* Improving your communication when you don’t know the element of the receiver.
* Communicating more effectively when you do know the element of the receiver
Your communication is only as good as the response you receive.
This workshop will help you to evaluate the whole person, starting with the self and radiating outwards. The better we know the needs and contributions of our whole self, the better we can honour them, the better we can honour our friends, partners, family and colleagues and the better we can honour our work.
Some of you I know have already done some Elements training with me but you don’t need to know a thing about it to attend – if it feels like you, take a leap!
Morning and afternoon tea/coffee will be provided.
