Project Leadership Communication
Lead and communicate to build effective work relationships
While few project managers have formal authority over their teams, the most successful ones know how to use the power of moral authority, which is gained through relationship building and excellent communication. In this course, you’ll learn about emotional competency and how to improve yours — especially in times of conflict — and about the crucial role communication plays in helping you to be more influential with stakeholders both inside and outside your group.
