Course Name
COM 780 Advanced Business Communications (4.5 quarter units)
Description
This course is an exploration of advanced concepts in general communication theory that are particularly applicable to strategic security. The course will examine the use of language and how to identify and evaluate semantic, logical, conscious and unconscious nonverbal communication channels, and what can be learned thereby about the speaker’s view of reality. These concepts will give students the ability to “read” individuals with considerable accuracy, and enhance their ability to persuade and negotiate with others. The course will give students an opportunity to evaluate their own personal communication style in light of their newly acquired skills, and make the adjustments needed to become more effective communicators.
