Effective communicators make good leaders.

Communication is a way in which the information is transferred from the sender to the receiver through the use of a medium. Effective communication is the one where the receiver receives the correct message intended by the sender. Being assertive and effective is often confused with being rude or being aggressive which is not true. You can be polite yet assertive. Communication Skills means putting across your ideas and views clearly and confidently in front of others and the same time respecting viewpoints and feelings of others. This course will give you tips on how to be more confident and will improve your low self-esteem.

The course will help you overcome the barriers of communication like filtering, selective perception, emotions and language. The ExpertRating Communicating like a Leader Certification will give you the confidence to effectively communicate your ideas and express your feelings like a leader.

ExpertRating Online Communication Skills Course (Communicating like a Leader) Coverage (6 weeks program)  

Week One

Wednesday - Lesson 01

Welcome to the course! In this lesson you'll learn about the basics of good communication and begin to understand your audience: who they are, what they expect, how best to reach them. After all, if you don't start with the audience, you'll miss a major connection point for good communication. You'll finish this lesson with a good understanding of the relationship between leadership and communication, which is just what we all need to start working together.

Friday - Lesson 02

Shaping Your Message: If you've ever wondered where to begin your communications, you won't have any questions after we finish this lesson. We'll take a close look at the kinds of messages there are, and then we'll look at different options for getting started and shaping those messages. Later, you'll participate in a journal exercise that will give you opportunities to start practicing your leadership communications.

Week Two

Wednesday - Lesson 03

Building Trust: When done right, communication not only conveys information, but also builds trust. In this lesson, a look is given into the situations which make the difference between leadership communications and ordinary communications. Here's your chance to learn about communicating through times of crisis and times of uncertainty. We'll also look at specific kinds of communications that build trust, with examples taken from our own practical experience.

Friday - Lesson 04

Choosing a Method or Medium: By now you should be ready to really communicate, so you're probably asking How? In this lesson, a look is given at the kinds of things which would help you in choosing your medium. After this lesson, you won't struggle to decide if you should communicate in person, on paper, or online.

Week Three

Wednesday - Lesson 05-

Methods: You've selected your method, so now it's time to look at how you should use it. In this lesson, you would be made ‘to think’ in terms of one-to-one, one-to-some, and one-to-many communications. There are subtleties to each, as you'll see them unfold in the lesson.

Friday - Lesson 06

Written Communications: Here's your chance to see how leaders use both short and long written communications, often incorporating visuals to enhance their most important points. You'll get plenty of tips to guide you, too!

Week Four

Wednesday - Lesson 07

Email: E-mail is used by all of us, but it is hardly used effectively. This lesson is both  fun and practical, covering e-mail etiquette as well as providing a range of insights into the possible pitfalls of e-mail. When you're done, check out the class discussion area to read your fellow students' personal experiences of good and bad uses of e-mail. Be sure to post a message about your experiences, too!

Friday - Lesson 08

Storytelling: This lesson is one of my personal favorites because In it you will see for the first time what a powerful connection there is between leaders and storytellers. Storytelling is an art, so a close look would be given to finer details. You'll learn to look for opportunities to either tell a story or to think about how your role model uses storytelling to complete a message.

Week Five

Wednesday - Lesson 09

Personal Mastery: Communicating involves more than just speaking—it also involves listening. In this stimulating lesson, you would explore something called active listening and go through all the steps involved so that you're able to master every aspect of communications behavior. This lesson will give you much to think about long after you finish the course!

Friday - Lesson 10

Feedback: Feedback is always eye-opening, no matter whether it's good or bad. This lesson will provide you with pointers on both giving and receiving feedback. The ability to solicit, appreciate, and incorporate feedback is another one of those qualities that sets leaders apart from the pack, so I know you'll find this lesson to be both stimulating and important.

Week Six

Wednesday - Lesson 11

Body Language: Since you know by now that communication involves more than just words, you'll learn to pay more attention to the way your body speaks. It's both fun and important to learn the meanings behind your body movements and facial expressions. Your body language communicates signs that affect how your audience receives your words. To be certain you're communicating the message you think you are, don't miss this lesson!

Friday - Lesson 12

Cross-Cultural Sensitivity: We started this course with the audience and we'll end with it, too. But this time we'll see the audience from a slightly different perspective. In today's global society, good communicators have to be aware of the differences between one culture and another, and they have to incorporate that knowledge in the way they communicate. This closing lesson is full of fascinating insights into how to reach people from different cultures. Buy the ExpertRating Online Communication Skills Course (Communicating like a Leader) - $99.99
