Most Word Smiths courses are run in-company – held at an organisation’s own premises for its staff. We do, however, run a limited number of full-day open courses, where we deliver the same content for individuals, or organisations who have a small number of people who want to attend.
Audio books
Gathering, analysing, absorbing, remembering and communicating information are essential skills in this time of increasing work pressure and information overload. But the prospect of acquiring these skills often seems like yet another burden added to the vast amounts of data we already have to process. Now there’s another way – one that makes it easy and fun to learn. In the car, at the gym – or wherever suits you best – you can be absorbing tips and techniques from the ‘For Success …’ series of audio books.
Speed Reading for Success, Memory and Learning for Success and Coaching and Mentoring for Success are three titles that have the power to revolutionise the effectiveness of your working life. Each title contains a CD or CDs (Coaching and Mentoring for Success), a colour booklet summarising the main points and a supporting online resources (Coaching and Mentoring for Success)
All titles are available from our online store in CD or download editions. CD editions are also available from Amazon and other sellers. Click on the cover thumbnails on the right to hear samples of these valuable development resources.
