TRAINING

programme

To get stuff built you need to be persuasive.

Learn how to speak persuasively with your clients and stakeholders through fun, practical communication skills training courses.

Design Communication Training helps architects and designers speak up and become  persuasive advocates for their work, how to talk to clients and win their trust.

It condenses learning from storytelling, journalism, behavioural psychology, business management and marketing into easy-to-apply techniques that will improve your interactions with clients and stakeholders.

audience awareness

To build a successful relationship with your client you must first learn about who they are and what they care about. Audience-focussed communication training will help you establish trust and understanding.

storytelling

Incorporate the universal language of stories into your professional communication to make your design presentations more memorable and convincing.

business communication

It's not always about design. Business communication skills are the foundation of growing your pipeline. Learn to listen, handle feedback and negotiate to win the work you want.
