About This Course

This class is called Courageous Communication Strategies for Leaders because it is designed for upwardly mobile professionals, emerging leaders, new team leaders, and departmental managers who want to excel and take their leadership to the next level.

Unfortunately, many leaders today still use old managerial approaches like control, top-down messages, secretive communication, and impersonal interactions. This approach contributes to low employee satisfaction, high turnover, and many other negative outcomes.

As an antidote, this class teaches you courageous alternatives to the old ways of doing things.

The lessons teach numerous practical, hands-on skills to put each of the four key communication and leadership strategies into practice right away.

Credit Information

Is this course eligible for my CPD requirements as a Canadian CPA?

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.

Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
