Pro workshop- Vectis

FKCCI cordially invites you to our Pro-Workshop entitled "Effective Communications Skills"

“EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATIONS SKILLS WORKSHOP”

Effective communication can improve business performance, facilitate teamwork and boost employee morale in any organization.

Practical Workshop to Enhance Clarity in Written and Verbal

Business Communications

Korean or foreign managers expect their staff to communicate effectively when writing emails, making presentations or when asking and answering questions during meetings.

That’s why, communicating effectively and getting one’s ideas across to other people clearly and in a professional way is one of the most important skills for business people today.

It should be noted that communication problems are not always dependent on one's English language skills. On the contrary, they are more often a fuction of being able to express complex ideas briefly, with clarity, structure and logic.
