ABC to Offer Renowned Power Communication Training

Students learn to build rapport and gain active listening skills for improving all relationships — business and personal. This class may be taken with co-workers and/or family members. Whether you want to increase your sales productivity, or want to build your agreement gaining skills, this interactive program will enhance your communication effectiveness immediately.
