This document discusses communication skills and effective communication styles. It covers non-verbal communication and body language. It presents a communication model of a sender encoding a message that is sent through a channel and decoded by a receiver. Feedback is also part of the model. The document discusses four main communication styles based on levels of assertiveness and focus on tasks versus people. These styles are presented as colors - red (driver), yellow (expressive), blue (analytical), and green (amicable). Tips are provided for communicating effectively with each style. Body language signals and their potential meanings are also outlined. Breakout group exercises are included to discuss topics like the importance of communication and qualities of an effective communicator.
