We鈥檒l reflect on how expectations affect communication, including stereotyping and conventions such as punctuality and politeness. 聽Finally, we鈥檒l learn some simple ways to adjust how we speak and write so that our communication is more effective. 聽Throughout the workshop you鈥檒l be able to share your ideas, experience and examples of good practice with your colleagues.
This workshop has previously been run with staff from Student and Academic Administration with excellent feedback:
鈥淰ery good event to raise awareness and share ideas with staff from other areas of the uni鈥�
鈥淚 think every member of staff should go to this session!鈥�
Led by Jill Doubleday, Modern Languages and Alison Dickens, LLAS (Centre for Languages, Linguistics and Area Studies) as part of the Intercultural Connections Southampton project.
