We all know that developing good relations with others is the key to success both professionally or personally. But just how effective are you at interacting with others? And what does it mean to you? ‘Interpersonal Interaction’ is a term used to describe an interpersonal intervention between you and another person, which focuses on: Understanding your interaction skills, attitudes and behaviours, and having an awareness of those of the other person, identifying and bringing about changes required in your skills, attitudes and behaviours - so as to effect enhanced relationship between yourself and the other person. This course is a unique opportunity to discover more about yourself, others and hypothesise about how best to adjust yourself so as to facilitate better, stronger, longer lasting relationships with other people who you value and who are important to you. This course is designed to equip you with the necessary knowledge, skills and behaviours to enable you to effectively interact with others, irrespective of how they behave towards you. In addition, this course aims to raise your awareness of, and have opportunities to practice, a range of behaviours suitable for interacting with others, so that you may make an informed decision about the most appropriate behaviour and strategy for interacting with them.
