Is
this for me? Cant I read a book and put that into practice?
In most areas of developing communication
skills - presenting, public speaking, interpersonal skills,
writing etc the interaction to be had by meeting with
several other like minded people on a training seminar
of workshop can be of immense benefit.
Take a presentation skills seminar
for example. You might well end up joining another 6 or
7 people who are also feeling petrified or terrified at
the prospect of having to stand up in front of the audience
and speak for a couple of minutes. The minute you start
to have a chat with these people over coffee you suddenly
realise that these guys feel just as I do. "Gee ...
I'm not so strange after all."

You will also get the opportunity to help support
your fellow seminar attendees on their journey of discovery and
in so doing you will not only be building up your confidence you
will also be building up some key skills as well.
You will also probably try and stay in touch
with some of the new friends you made on the course - and even
better - keep each other encouraged to progress several months
or even years after the actual seminar.
So if you can afford the time to attend one
of these seminars or courses you should certainly try to.
And by the way, have you ever bought a new book
and then never even got past the first chapter? You can certainly
learn quite a lot from a book if you actually read it and digest
it but you'll never get as much out of a book as you would from
a good training seminar.
OK
so how do I find a good training course?
We'd
suggest the same way that you've found our website. Same as
for finding a coach. Search the web. Remember to be as specific
as you can be in your search phrase. If you are looking for

Google for "communication
