Description
This course will demonstrate how you can communicate more effectively, connect with others more powerfully, and command greater influence – how to be compelling (with your patients and everyone else around you).
We will explore the notion of emotional intelligence – what it means, how it is measured, where you fit on the spectrum, and how it is the biggest determinant of success and effectiveness when it comes to communicating with people and patients.
We will look at how individuals (including your patients) are programmed to respond to non-verbal cues, and we will show you how you can increase your charisma and personal presence, and how you can develop spontaneity, flexibility and range of expression so as to be able to make stronger connections. We will highlight research that shows how we all can connect with our patients in far deeper and more purposeful ways, and we will then provide a clear and useful framework of power cues that will help increase and enhance your personal impact.
You will also learn about personality types, how to uncover hidden emotions, and how to decode what your patients are really feeling. We will walk through and role play specific patient scenarios and interactions and we will provide you with a toolkit to help you navigate through difficult situations.
