Skills with People is a highly personalised course of coaching and training in communication skills. We're based near London. We run the course regularly both in St Albans, Herts, and in Hythe, Kent. Thousands of managers and professional people have been through our hands.
Our approach appeals to those who are not easily satisfied by standard management training courses. Clients benefit from the precise behavioural diagnosis we offer, and they find our coaching supportive and encouraging. The communication skills we teach have a powerful and transforming simplicity. This course has been picked out many times as a "high spot" among UK management training courses.
