Can I learn to communicate with a diverse team?
The communication requirements include different audience needs.
What does this mean for a new leader?
The communication requirements include responding to different audience needs. An emerging leader should avoid assuming that everyone receives, understands or prefers information in the same way. The method needs to support the people and purpose involved.
How can you prepare or compare?
In a practice situation, ask willing participants what would make the information clearer. Consider spoken, written or demonstrated instructions where appropriate, then check understanding. Confirm how the provider supports inclusive interaction and any learning needs during its own assessment activities.
What should you compare?
- People and tasks involved
- Required plans, occasions and resources
- Provider support and practical access
What remains unconfirmed?
The national evidence requirement is checked; the provider task design, participants, tools and accepted evidence are not known.
What can you do next?
Discuss accessible formats with the trainer.
