Leadership Communication Foundations is a one-day instructor-led programme designed for managers and emerging leaders who need to communicate with confidence, clarity, and credibility. The course covers the full range of leadership communication scenarios: briefing upwards, giving difficult feedback, influencing peers, facilitating meetings, and writing with authority. Grounded in practical frameworks and immediate application, every session includes structured practice with mentor feedback so participants leave with habits they can apply the next working day.
Build practical leadership communication skills through structured exercises, realistic workplace scenarios, and mentor-guided role-play. Participants will draft executive briefing notes, practise difficult conversations, facilitate meetings, and refine messages from their own professional context, receiving actionable feedback that can be applied immediately in the workplace.
Learn directly from experienced leadership practitioners who provide personalised coaching, live demonstrations, and constructive feedback throughout the programme. Interactive discussions and guided practice ensure every participant develops greater confidence, clarity, and credibility in high-impact communication situations.
Develop the communication capabilities expected of effective managers and future leaders. By the end of the programme, participants will be equipped to influence stakeholders, communicate with executives, manage challenging conversations, lead meetings, and produce professional written communications that support organisational success.
