Course Description
AI is rapidly transforming the way businesses communicate. Given the proper data, AI can generate communications for a variety of purposes, but it can’t be a perfect substitute for human communication when it comes to forming strong connections with others. AI also struggles to persuade as effectively as humans because of its inability to communicate with non-verbal cues, recognize and respond to ambiguity, and practice cultural sensitivity. Establishing the right connections is essential for any fulfilling career, and enduring relationships depend on human traits such as empathy and authenticity.

In this course, we’ll discuss how to cultivate your emotional intelligence and follow basic principles for building trust.
