Communication & Teamwork in the Workplace

Communication & Teamwork in the Workplace

Why Communication? Because once someone gets the job, success often hinges less on technical skills and more on how well they work with others. Employers consistently rank communication and teamwork as two of the most critical soft skills.

This course could cover:

• Professional communication – Writing professional emails, participating in meetings, active listening, and giving/receiving feedback.

• Team collaboration – Understanding roles within a team, contributing effectively, and respecting diverse perspectives.

• Conflict resolution – Addressing disagreements in a professional and constructive way.

• Adapting to supervisors and coworkers – Navigating different personalities, management styles, and generational differences.

• Workplace professionalism in communication – Tone, body language, and cultural awareness.

By focusing here, you’d give students not just the tools to land the job (resume building, ethics, location/culture awareness) but also the skills to succeed and advance once they’re in the role.
