We "Teach Geeks to Speak"!

Interpersonal Communication Training

for IT Professionals

Often Information Technology professionals fail to realize the business value demanded by their company due not to their technical performance, but rather their ability to communicate effectively with others.  With our economic reality, the stakes are too high to allow this problem to continue any longer.  Your success in business and life are in direct proportion to your ability to Communicate.  - LaShanya Aikerson Sullivan

.

• ONE DAY and TWO DAY SEMINARS: This seminar begins with an understanding of how the IT mind works. Participants then learn the definition of effective communication.

  • "LaShanya is very knowledgeable and a true inspiration as a coach. The first time I heard her speak I contacted her and told her I planned to get my MBA, but did not know the best way to go about it. She encouraged me to go for the school I really wanted (the #1 business school in the country) and gave me specific strategies for handling the interview and application process. So I went for it, and got in! I begin classes this fall. I am forever grateful to LaShanya for her encouragement, specific strategies, and support throughout the process!" - Petronella Lugemwa, Urban League Young Professionals

We will definitely ask her to speak at our next conference!" - Carriea Flowers, National Association of Black Accountants, Inc.
