Explore ways to make meetings more effective, including developing strong agendas and ensuring that three key leadership roles are filled (facilitator, note taker, timekeeper). Practice public speaking and develop more effective communication skills in different contexts to engage the audience. Specific skills for facilitating brainstorming sessions are discussed, along with practical tools for helping groups distill the results of brainstorming into actionable solutions and activities to help spark creativity. 

Power Skills at Illinois is an interactive program for employees looking to strengthen their communication, teamwork, and leadership skills to become more effective in the workplace. Participants will learn practical tools to communicate with a purpose, grow effective teams, and develop a language for understanding and cultivating capable leaders.  

This certification course consists of three core sessions delivered in a live virtual workshop via video conferencing. Participants who complete all three sessions will earn a certificate of completion:

  • Communication
  • Teamwork
  • Leadership
