QUESTION 32 OF 35

Describe your communication style. How has it benefited you in your work as a Corporate Trainer?

Effective communication throughout the training process is crucial for the success of a Corporate Trainer. In addition to being comfortable in your communication with learners during a training session, you also need to prove your ability to communicate with all other leaders that you will work with in this role. Your interviewer wants to have a sense of how effectively you communicate. As you answer, describe how you lead conversations with subject matter experts, cross-functional stakeholders, team members, and learners. Your interviewer will want to hear that your communication style fits well in the environment in which you work.

"I would call myself a diplomatic communicator. I like to see a situation from all sides as much as possible. When it comes to developing training sessions, I begin with the end in mind. The best way to do this is by gathering information from everyone involved, especially those who can provide the perspective from and about the learners I will be training. I wasn't always like this, especially growing up. However, I realized that to become more effective at work, I have to further develop my interpersonal skills. It has helped me to become a more charismatic person. I now have an easier time persuading and collaborating with others."
