In an organization, leadership is important ecause it uild your self"development. For e+ample, a leader should show the firmness when giving an order and ma&e people trust that you &now what to do for every pro/ect. Good leaders start from a good employee. !n employee should show their a ility to lead the rest of the team and enhance co"operation in an organization. !part from leadership, there also other program that important to uild your self"

development that is communication s&ill program. 5ommunication is important in other to e a part of organization. 5ommunication can connect you the other employee and without communication, an organization will never wor& as a team. 2efore entering this program, we have to understand the meaning of the communication. 5ommunication is the process of transferring information from a sender to a receiver with the use of a medium in which the communicated information is understood y oth sender and receiver. In its simplest form communication is the use of words to descri e and convey a message or give information to another person. .e communicate using language as a code to share information, ideas and feelings.

5ommunication is the &ey to

e a successful employee. For e+ample, when there is a

presentation, the way we spea& and show the suita le gesture to people around us will influence the way they thin& and act. ! good communication will convince people to accept us and accept the pro/ect you present. #here are two main types of communication, ver al and non"ver al. 6er al communication occurs when a person puts across their message y spea&ing. #he person sending the message is e+pected to e a le to convey a message which clearly e+presses all of their feelings, needs, wants, dreams, hopes, messages, values, eliefs and thoughts using the -nglish language that we have availa le to us. #he receiver has to e a le to listen to the information, understand all that that was communicated to them, and, if need e, act upon any part of the message. If the receiver misunderstands the message, the sender can get upset and feel li&e they are not eing listened to. #his can cause friction, tension, conflict, even anger. #o avoid misunderstandings, the receiver of the message needs to e s&illed enough to &now how to understand the sender of the message. #his is when reflective listening can e of great assistance. .hat can also ma&e a huge difference are the tonal 3ualities of your voice. #he tone, pitch, volume, tim re and speed of your voice have a significant impact on how the message you are trying to get across to someone is actually received y them. 7on"ver al communication is divided into four different types. First is ody language using our ody parts li&e face, arms, legs, hands and fingers. Second is physical appearance. #he unfortunate reality is that a lot of people /udge us y our physical appearance. 8ur ody shape and size, hair, clothing, hygiene, how we hold our self and our personal all communicate something a out us. #hese factors will all influence how people communicate with us. #hird is personal space. *ersonal space refers to the distance that you put etween yourself and another person when you are tal&ing to them. #he last is environment which referring to the spaces we live, learn or wor& in or use on a daily asis for sport or other activities. .herever we are, communication is something that people will e+pect you to convince them to get involved in you and to your organization. So even you are hardwor&ing or a smart

thin&er, if you fail to communicate or present your wor& to other people, then you will e not e accepted as a good employee. ! good communicator &now how to ma&e eye contact, use right gesture, use the rights word and use the appropriate volume when sending the information. 8ther program that contri utes in your self"development is computer course. 9ave a good s&ill in computer not only can help you to e a good employee ut also help you promoted yourself to e a good leadership. :now how to use computer is not enough ut to master it especially Microsoft office. #odays, computer s&ill is important when you loo&ing for a /o . It is a part of your potential to e accepted in an organization. #here is so much use of computer. For e+ample, it is use to create your presentation, typing and save data, editing picture, image or plan, e"mailing, surf internet and much more. If there is no computer, no /o will e done. #hat is why every company we go for an interview, they will as& if we have a asic of computer. If you good in using computer, you will e trusted to do a lot of tas&s. From here, you can show your potential and increase your achievement. .hen employer sees your achievement, you can e a good e+ample to other employee and perhaps will e promoted anytime. -ven though you are not promoted, at least you will e wor&ing for a long time in any company. #he last program we offered is personal management program. #his program divided into several programs that have een schedule such as learn time management techni3ue, /o training, control stress and anger and organize wor& space. !s we &now, time is very important in our life ecause time will decide everything. 2ecause of that, we have to &now how to manage time properly. !rrive at wor& on time, go to meeting on time and finish a /o early.
