The Seven Skills of Dialogue

Workshop Overview

Dialogue is an oral form of communication. The term ‘Dialogue’ is often used, but in practice it is poorly understood and executed. To remedy this situation, students will be taught the Seven Skills of Dialogue over a two part series of three hour workshops. The program will allow the students to practice Dialogue between sessions so that they can report their successes and challenges in Part 2 of the program. The program involves learning about and practicing the skills associated with Dialogue.

Testimonials

“Another great session from Gary. He is undoubtedly one of the best presenters of relevant leadership training that is simple and powerful. I didn’t realize I could get so much more out of my dialogue. I am practicing the technique every day. Time well spent – Thanks Gary.”

David Graham, postgraduate student

“I am very satisfied by what Gary delivered in 2 seminars with the topic ‘Dialogue Skills’. I will apply it in my career and life to get more success in my career and in my personal life. I would like to recommend this workshop to future students.”

Hung Quoc Nguyen, postgraduate student

“Extremely useful, provides an understanding of effective communication in the workplace, can also be used in everyday situations. You can really see the application through the activities and conversations during class. Really enjoyed it!”

Samuel Lawrence Tann, postgraduate student

“The workshop highlighted to me the importance of good dialogue. It also gave me skills to improve my own communication ability. The skill of reflection was also something I will try with my future work teams to get shared understanding and improved performance.”

Jeremy Coombe, postgraduate student

“I found that the activities are stimulating. I can reflect to my current dialogue capability. I know how to apply it in group assignments/discussions. I am aware that I have choices, even though the choices are not easy. Great content. Personal experiences are great to be used as examples so we can relate and understand easier.”

Adina Nur Hidayatri, postgraduate student

“Communication is what we people do to interact with each other. Reflecting on the skills of communication is beneficial for my future, and definitely improve my skills to improve relationships. Thank you. Have a good day!”

Katharina Sumantri, postgraduate student

“All students should take up this program. Too often we assume we know dialogue or how to dialogue effectively with others. I thought so, but I was surprised as to how limited my understanding and take on dialogue was. Really helped and I am positive it has changed me on how I use dialogue from now on, both personally and professionally.”

Gemma M. Matainaho, postgraduate student

“Great workshop to help facilitate great dialogue.”

Adnan Ali, postgraduate student

“Opens your mind to how you communicate – explores the way you think. Helps you identify what you are doing wrong and how you can improve.”
