- Effective Communication: Participants learned how to articulate ideas clearly, actively listen, and give and receive feedback constructively.
- Teamwork and Collaboration: The importance of building strong working relationships, resolving conflicts, and fostering a positive team culture was emphasized.
- Leadership and Management: Participants explored leadership styles, decision-making techniques, and strategies for motivating and inspiring teams.
- Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking: The training provided tools for identifying problems, analyzing situations, and developing creative solutions.
