// Confident Communication For Teams: Overcome Barriers and Inspire teams

Communication is often the primary obstacle to leadership success. Why? Because communication fears and inefficiencies hold us back from inspiring teams and achieving optimal results.

In this workshop, we break through those barriers. We’ll transform communication fears and inefficiencies into sources of strength by equipping you with emotional intelligence, public speaking, and storytelling tools.

Additionally, we’ll explore confidence through the Enneagram lens. Each participant will receive a personalized report on their personality and communication intelligence, and the team will also receive a report (additional costs apply for the Enneagram assessment).

Objectives & Highlights
  • Identify and reframe communication fears
  • Establish an effective feedback loop to reduce communication inefficiencies
  • Apply emotional intelligence, public speaking, and storytelling techniques to engage audiences and drive action.

“This workshop was GREAT! So often I feel like I’ve attended workshops and leave without anything specific I can apply to my everyday life and incorporate easily. This was not that. Erik’s workshop had tangible tools and exercises to share with my team. The exercises are so well connected to the message and are done in short spurts of time (which is a precious resource!). Thanks Erik!”

“There are many challenges a leader has to deal with, but one thinking I learned from Erik was that as an emerging leader, obstacles are inevitable along our path. Reframing those obstacles to be seen as opportunities empowers me to continue on my path with less resistance. I know what my dream or mission is and I know that the small obstacles along the greater journey are not powerful enough to stop me.”
