PDF Info Sheet

Learn and laugh! Both men and women thoroughly enjoy this high-content, educational and entertaining program!

Communication style differences between men and women undermine effective teamwork, sales results, customer service, and relationship at work and at home. Employees often know conflicts or problems exist, but don't understand why or what to do about them. Stereotypes, assumptions, lack of credibility, misinterpretation of intentions, and misperceptions of style differences are examples of common problem areas. Consequences of these misunderstandings include confusion, conflict, and sexual harassment complaints.

Using interactive lecture, exercises, statistics, case studies, role-plays, and a generous dose of relevant humor, Jane teaches audiences with a light, no male-bashing approach how to recognize, understand, and work successfully with the many communication style differences between men and women.
