Course Overview
Hi, everyone. My name is Andreea Epistatu, and welcome to my course, Communication Techniques ‑ Optimizing Information Sharing within Your Team. I've managed technical projects for the past 10 years, and I've noticed that in today's workplace, there are more methods and tools than ever to interact and share information within a team. Still, failure to communicate is common. Poor or negative communication, incomplete information, and conflicts can bring added stress to the team. Team communication is what makes things happen. It creates team culture and provides direction and purpose. Some of the major topics that we will cover in this course include a new way to look at your team and team of tools while recognizing challenges and identifying team success elements, an easy‑to‑follow computer‑supported collaborative work approach. This is a great opportunity to learn and use certain techniques based on when and where your colleagues are working from, so you are optimizing information sharing within the team. The theory is wrapped around several scenarios with complete techniques and exercises. If you already took one of my previous courses, you are familiar with the practical examples and simulations I'm proposing. Keep in mind, the strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team. Before beginning the course, you should be familiar with team management and have basic soft skills. No matter your current role, you can act as a connector and as an influencer to improve the communication flow. I hope you'll join me in this journey to learn how to do so with the Communication Techniques ‑ Optimizing Information Sharing within Your Team course at Pluralsight.
