In the fast-paced world of SMEs, effective communication often takes a backseat amidst the multitude of tasks and challenges. However, underestimating its importance can have significant consequences. How often do SMEs overlook the significance of communication? It’s probably more common than you think. Consider this: ‘70% of people believe that wasted time is the worst consequence of poor communication’.
That’s why on Thursday 9th May, Breathe is partnering up with renowned guests Claire Brumby, Dragons’ Den contender, best-selling author, and one of 50 women changing the world today, alongside HR sensation and Learning & Development Manager, Katy Wade from Bespoke HR. Together, during L&D: how to become an effective and communicative manager, we’ll be tackling this problem head-on, as we discuss Claire’s own business experiences and how you can develop your managers, from Katy’s HR perspective.
Effective communication is fundamental to any business – but particularly to start-ups and SMEs who need to: foster collaboration, align goals, facilitate swift decision-making, ensure employee satisfaction, and enhance overall business performance (just to name a few). Clear communication encourages teamwork and ensures that all team members understand the company’s objectives and expectations, leading to cohesive efforts towards common goals. So what does this all mean if there are communication struggles?
Communication impacts everything – so if it’s not effective, this can cause workflow issues, create errors, contribute towards employee burnout, lower productivity and reduce business successes… the list goes on. But, it doesn’t need to be this way.
During the webinar, we’ll explore:
- Why good communication matters
- Essential communication skills for managers
- The value of feedback
- Learning and training tools to takeaway
We’ll also hold a Q&A session with Claire and Katy, where you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, that will help give you insights and actionable strategies to enhance communication within your SME.
