Empower front line staff to deal with conflict, manage anxiety, improve operational safety and tactical communication skills in the workplace.

Why undertake tactical communication?

  • Heightened Risk

    Authorised Officers, Compliance and Enforcement staff and those who work in Customer Service roles have a challenging task. Delivering legislative and regulatory obligations, and providing advice to potentially unhappy members of the public, carries heightened risk.

  • Risk to Staff Outside Office Settings

    Risk to staff is elevated if the carrying out of these tasks occurs outside of the office setting. The reality is that sometimes front line staff find themselves delivering obligations at someone’s business, their home, on a farm or in an isolated outdoor environment.

  • Safe Workplace

    Employers have a duty-of-care in providing staff a safe workplace, and mitigating working environment risk through appropriate training & procedures.

  • Meeting Obligations

    Our training goes a long way to meeting these obligations.
