Webinar: Communication in Chemical Engineering: Lead with Clarity, Influence with Impact

Overview

From plant floors to boardrooms, clear communication is the foundation of safe, effective, and innovative engineering. But leadership communication goes beyond transmitting information – it drives understanding, commitment, and action.

This session is designed for managers and executives who want to strengthen their leadership through powerful communication. We will explore:

• how to adapt your communication style for different audiences
• turning technical expertise into messages that resonate
• managing difficult conversations with confidence and empathy
• using storytelling and influence to build alignment and trust.

Communication isn’t just what you say – it’s how you lead. When you communicate with clarity, you amplify your impact

This webinar is part of a series with the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), the only body that can award Chartered Manager status, the highest accolade for leaders. For over 75 years, CMI has inspired and equipped managers to grow into confident, successful leaders, shaping the future of modern management.
