Consistent with the title of this post, I am running a 1hr Supercommunicators workshop at the City Campus on the 5th March for Connect Week. With my questionable social skills, it should be a blast 🙂
Last year (2025), my colleague Haidee and I both read the same book, intellectual giants that we are.
It was called Supercommunicators by Charles Duhigg.
We both enjoyed it and agreed it had a practical vibe, meaning it wasn’t just a selection of interesting stories about communication (which it is) but you could clearly extract skills from it to teach.
So we went about creating a 2-session workshop from it in which we teach 6 of the core skills from the book.
- open-ended questions
- deeper questions
- matching mood and energy
- prove you are listening
- common ground
- prepare for the conversation
We only got to run the workshop once (time constraints), and it was looking like the workshop was going to get shelved.
But then Connect Week 2026 came around, and the City Campus were looking for some additional on-campus events.
I realised it was time for Supercommunicators to have its second life. Rise little workshop rise!!!!
The delivery is a bit different this time. I’m packing the content into 1 hour. But we’ll cover the same territory. Simple communication skills that can help you have better conversations.
And I know first-hand, from literal experimentation in making friends, that good conversations are critical building blocks of friendships.
💬 So, the invitation is there. Join me at the City Campus, in room 416, from 12pm-1pm, on the 5th March, to become a better conversationalist. 💬
You will find details of the session in the Orientation Planner as well, under wellbeing programs.
