Take Your Communication Skills to the Next Level!

The UA Employee Feedback Surveys made it clear; professional development and open, honest communication matter. In response, UA HR’s Talent Acquisition and Development team is rolling out monthly training collections designed to help you build the skills you need to succeed.

First, dive into the Communicating with Courtesy and Impact collection, a series of videos designed to help employees at every level communicate with confidence, respect, and authenticity. Discover strategies for tackling tough conversations, expressing yourself clearly, and building stronger workplace relationships that promote collaboration. When we enhance our connections with one another, we foster a culture of trust, respect, and productivity throughout UA. 

Then, mark your calendar for our live webinar on September 18th at 11 a.m., How to Receive Criticism and Make It Work for You.

Supervisors:

Don’t miss the Leadership version of this collection, featuring videos that focus on leading conversations, fostering team communication, and creating open and supportive dialogue. 

Then join us on September 11th at 11:00 a.m. for the Addressing Employee Performance Issues in a Supportive Way webinar.

No matter your role at UA, now’s the time to invest in your growth! Activate your free UA Employee LinkedIn Learning account, check out the Training Calendar for upcoming events, explore on-demand training in the MyUA Learning Library, and speak with your supervisor about how to align your development with your career goals.
