Empower your team to communicate effectively.
No one likes to feel unheard or misunderstood. That’s why communication is such a critical ingredient for great teamwork and collaboration. And it doesn’t matter which role you’re in: successful managers and team members are the ones who communicate well.
And it isn’t just about managing conflict. Whether inspiring others to achieve goals, building relationships, or influencing decision-making, you need to communicate effectively – in writing, virtually, and in person.
Our powerful communication training sessions promote better working relationships and helps your employees present clear and positive messages. Our sessions address the key challenges – with memorable tactics, easy-to-apply frameworks, and engaging exercises.
💡 All our communication training sessions are two hours long, except our full-day workshop on presentation skills. All are delivered by our expert facilitators, either at your workplace or remotely. Each session is suitable for groups of 4 - 15 attendees.

Video: aligning intentions for smoother communication
“Stop for a moment and ask yourself: ‘Why am I reallyhaving this conversation?’ Dig a little deeper, and often you can reveal a common target – and remove conflict from the conversation.”
In this quick video, BiteSize Learning founder Paul Hodder reflects on how finding common ground with an interlocutor – whether it’s a manager, sales lead or stakeholder – can be the key to moving a conversation forward.
Recent reviews for our communication training courses

"I found our trainer kept the course engaging and delivered well with an answer all questions; I now have some new styles to put in place to help me going forward and some really good tips. Its really good having the breakout session with groups as it makes it more interesting to hear how others deal or would deal in certain situations."

"I've taken some other presentation courses, but this one had some really helpful content and the trainer was also able to add more insight and clarity that helped too. I tried one of the techniques that stuck out to me during the presentation at the end of the course, and I found it worked well. Thanks!"

"The content & structure of the course were excellent; themed sections were arranged logically & coherently, making the information and tips easily digestible Trainer was very empathetic and accommodated each trainee's specific concerns and helped us all to work on improving individual weaknesses. Practice sessions weren't too prescriptive or rigid and this flexibility mitigated my nervousness about producing and delivering a mock presentation at short notice"
Attendee, Managing for Mental Health

"The course content is good, practical, and informative. Kathryn is friendly, enthusiastic, encouraging, and aware of what she is explaining. She provided constructive feedback during our presentation. I was quite amazed that she could pick up so many things and type out her feedback and explain to us, whether the positive ones or things that need to improve."

"It was very interesting, and made me think about how I approach presentations or situations where I may have to "think fast." There were some useful tools to take away. Two hours feels like a big part of the working day, but this course needed that time – if the length was any shorter, we would have had to race through, and it may have been less impactful. We had a very nice and engaging presenter."
Attendee, Thinking on Your Feet

"I liked actually seeing different types of communication and personality styles being formalised and defined, in order to be aware of them when communicating with my team. Also, meeting some of my colleagues who I deal with regularly for the first time! And speaking to international colleagues."
Attendee, Managing Upwards
