Communication skills

 

Today I am grateful for being part of the Malton Woman Council in the capacity of Resiliency Community Peer Ambassador that brought a bunch of learning opportunities for developing and promoting a fine character in that role. The training titled "Communication Skills", hosted and coordinated by Uzma Irfan and facilitated by Nivedita Shori. I acknowledge and appreciate today's training session for a variety of reasons, for instance:

• The training session was facilitated via zoom, highly convenient, and comfortably join. No requirement to formally dressed up, drive or take TTC. Merely check and monitor internet connectivity to be with the flow of the session

• Today's training session broaden the horizon and perspective regarding communication skills, more specifically 7 Cs of communication

• Nivedita Shori facilitated the session by conveying the gist and significance of communication. The session was highly engaging and interactive with a breakout room, questions, asking for reflection and thoughts. These strategies promoted a deep understanding of the core values of communication and are mindful (be present with the moment)

• Uzma Irfan was coordinating the session gracefully and wonderfully by reading messages, answering, setting boundaries, teaching things if we were stuck during the session and kept an eye on regulating the progression of the session
