Humans cannot avoid communicating and everything we do communicates with those around us. Communication is also an outward expression of a physical state. This program leverages cutting-edge research to help participants better understand what those they serve are trying to say and how to respond.
Objectives include:
- Develop greater understanding of the role of environment and context as influencers of behavior.
- Recognize under-recognized physical changes and conditions that affect a person's mood, cognition, and behavior.
- Learn strategies to be a better detective and figure out what is driving a person's behavior.Presenter
