Have
you remarked that some people, friends or colleagues, demonstrate
effective behaviour while others do not? Socially skilful people are
capable of responding to challenge and provocation from others in a way
that will soothe these persons rather than inflame them, they know how
to make their wishes known to others, accurately interpret verbal or
non-verbal messages from others, and enjoy meeting and conversing with
people. And they are good at figuring out how to behave in a way that
leads other people to like them.
Social skills don’t come naturally to everybody. To some people these
are innate qualities. Fortunately we also can acquire them through
observing and modelling others, throughout our childhood and
adolescence. Most often a great part of the job was done unconsciously
when we tested and integrated what we judged to be appropriate in our
repertoire of behaviours.
Recent advances in research have demonstrated that in many cases social
withdrawal inclinations that will inhibit the development of social
skills are the ill side-effects of particular foods shown to be toxic to
some individuals. In some cases, urine examination reporting high levels
of morphine-like peptides will prove what foods are toxic. Keeping away
from certain foods will dramatically improve the “innate” propensity to
social withdrawal and shyness.
Deficit of social skills leads to:
-
Feeling of isolation, loneliness, rejection, poor self-esteem, social
withdrawal
-
Feeling of not being understood by others; frustration because other
people do not take account of your wishes
-
Psychological problems that can be both the cause and effect, such as
depression, anxiety, aggression and suicidal attempts
WithYourVoice Ltd
offers you techniques to prevent these feelings from developing into
serious problems.
Our
intervention includes:
-
identification of factors that interfere with your
social
skill performance.
What prevents you from demonstrating a skill that you already have?
Why do you have trouble in saying “no” to others? Why do you feel an
inhibition within yourself whenever you want to make a request?
-
focus on facilitating the desirable behaviours
as well as eliminating the undesirable ones (e.g. shyness)
-
emphasis on generalisation and maintenance of your skills into
multiple, real life situations
Using Voice Technology and NLP tools, it will become easy to:
-
erase anger
or
identify toxins that cause sudden change in character, high
sensitivity to negative remarks or provocations leading to fits of
temper. NLP will provide the tools and skills of mouth necessary to
gracefully reformulate ill-voiced remarks or accept them elegantly
when they are grounded
-
recognise/understand others’ points-of-view:
a good relationship begins when others feel understood and accepted
-
conduct peer negotiation
and conflict management, especially in enterprises where the
objective is to be productive
-
show assertiveness and vocal skills when facing peers:
ability to say “no” while feeling supportive, coping skills to resist
pressure such as smoking, drinking or money spending etc.
-
master effective communication:
giving, receiving and interpreting
messages correctly from others;
stating your point of view with confidence and assurance, making your
wishes known to others and doing “I” statements; communication
will become enjoyable and rewarding
-
be responsible in decision-making
and time-management: series of poor decisions, mistakes in
decision or mismanagement of one’s time always cause disappointment
and reinforce low self-concept
Let
yourself be amazed by becoming:
-
assertive
and positive in the way you think and behave
-
confident,
with internal
locus of
control
-
capable of efficiently handling bullying behaviour from others,
criticism or failure
-
ready to deepen and improve your personal and professional
relationships
-
talented at meeting people, conversing, selecting new friends or a new
partner
Good
social skills are critical to successful functioning in life. These
skills enable you to know what to say, how to make good choices and how
to behave in diverse situations. Social skills are your assets. In this
ever more complex world, learning or improving them will enhance the
development and maintenance of relationships - leading to a better life.
