Module 2: Creating Positive Relationships

Creating positive relationships takes work, but like any skill, we can learn how to build these relationships by considering useful techniques and then making a decision to apply them. While we often think of communication as a coding and decoding process, we can also consider how communication is also a process of constructing meaning out of messages.

In this module, we will look at ten quick things that you can do to help develop positive relationships. You will have an opportunity to evaluate what you are doing now and what you might want to work on. We’ll also talk about the power of words to build you up.
