Effective conversations for success in your professional career and business, as well as in your personal, family, and romantic life.

Conversation is more than just communicating. It is talking to another person or persons on a deeper level, while listening to understand what they are saying. It’s how we connect with and learn from others.
There is a difference between communication and conversation. Communication is when you share your knowledge with others without needing or getting their input. Conversation, on the other hand, involves the exchange of knowledge between two or more people. It’s the talks and discussions you have with another person.
There is power in the art of having a conversation. Conversations can come in several types and occur in a variety of situations. For some, participating in a lengthy conversation can be stressful and difficult, depending on whether you prefer to listen to others or would rather do more of the talking.
There are ways to improve your conversation skills and you’ll discover those throughout this course. You’ll get some conversation starters and exercises to help you become a better conversationalist.
You’ll also discover why the art of conversation is important in every area of your life. Use this course to help you develop your conversation skills and unleash the power of conversations in your everyday life.

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.
