Abstract:

Learning Objectives 1. Enable participants to explore the value of self-awareness and mindfulness in understanding themselves (thoughts, emotions, and communication patterns). 2. Enable participants to learn to recognise limiting beliefs and replace them with positive, empowering beliefs. 3. Help participants navigate challenging conversations or situations with composure and empathy and learn to effectively communicate their ideas.

Description:

1. The Role of Communication in Shaping Thought Patterns Communication is a complex interaction influenced by numerous external factors that extend beyond mere emotions. These factors encompass cultural backgrounds, personal histories, individual differences, perceptions, beliefs, environmental contexts, social circles, and more (Lewar et al., 2023). This module primarily explores the subtleties of unspoken, unconventional, and often overlooked forms of communication in human interactions. Each chapter delves deep into various aspects, theories, case studies, and practical applications pertaining to these subtle communication dynamics. The examples, topics, and case studies discussed here draw heavily from the personal experiences of the module's writers, supplemented by insights from renowned communication coaches, writers, and practitioners. Understanding these aspects of communication is crucial because despite its everyday nature, the significance of effective communication is frequently undervalued in our daily interactions.
