ENTERTRAINMENT AGENDA/PROGRAM:

  1. WARM-UP ACTIVITY: WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE HERO?

Rationale:

This activity allows all participants to know more about one another other than their names, which department they belong to, and the supervisor they report to. At the same time, it will let them discover how others perceive them with both their positive and negative traits.

What’s In It for Them?

Effective communication stems from not only familiarity but from awareness as well. When co-workers know more about others, they develop a working relationship that transcends employee-to-employee relationships. Also, knowing what others think of you will help you be careful with not coming across negatively and making an effort to enhance strengths more and correct areas for improvement; an initiative needed in effective communication.

 

  1. COMMUNICATION MODEL

Rationale:

This interactive discussion gives the participants a refresher on the basic communication model that shows who and what are involved in effective communication and how each component contributes to both positive and negative repercussions when it does not function correctly.

What’s In It for them?

With the aid of the facilitator, participants will be able to spot who or what is at fault as far as the issues or challenges of effective communication in the workplace are concerned. By knowing these areas of opportunities, they can suggest solutions to resolve conflicts.

Activities:

  • Communicative Engagement: Open Forum

 

  1. COPING WITH INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES

Rationale:

An interactive discussion about learning styles, communication preferences, and cultural diversity will explain to the participants that people with differences can thrive together and can still achieve personal goals at the expense of other people.

What’s In It for Them?

The participants will know, understand, appreciate, and apply how to communicate with and treat other people with reference to learning styles, communication preferences, and cultural diversity.

 

  1. ASSERTIVENESS AND SENSITIVITY TRAINING

Rationale:

This combination of interactive discussion and immediate application exercises will show how verbal communication thru positive scripting and delivery and non-verbal communication in the form of facial expressions, body language, and gestures positively and negatively affect communication among people and groups.

What’s In It for Them?

This highlight of the training will train the participants on how to look, move, speak, sound and behave appropriately so as not to be misunderstood by other people and so as to convey their message accurately and ethically. On the other hand, it will also help them understand other people more and be sensitive about their feelings, thoughts, and personalities using their verbal and non-verbal signals.
