Connecting with People

Improve teamwork and tolerance by discovering what makes people tick. There are many situations and occupations where it is important to make connections with people - sometimes just for a moment and sometimes for a lifetime. This course is about what happens in the sequential stages of connecting with people - from those first few seconds or minutes to anniversary.

There are some people that you readily connect with and others you somehow miss. This course helps you make that connection with just about any person you want to connect with. It helps you find out what happens now accidentally with occasional people you connect with, and helps it happen much more often.

Who will benefit from Connecting with People

Any person who is in a team situation or who meets many new people and needs to make a good first and lasting impression - in a genuine way.
