Course Description
Imagine being able to give employees, colleagues and clients constructive criticism in the workplace, and they follow your advice, and actually appreciate your insights. Wouldn't it be nice to know that you can deliver criticism to colleagues in the workplace and they will take your criticism to heart and feel better about you in the process?
In this How to Deliver Criticism in the Workplace course, you will learn the following:
* How to avoid the common blunders other people make when delivering criticism in the workplace
* How to build trust first with colleagues
* How to make your criticism seem objective and credible
* How to package your criticism so that it will be acted upon
This course is delivered primarily through spoken lectures. Because the skill you are learning is speaking related, it only makes sense that you learn through speaking.
The skill you will learn in this class is not primarily theoretical or academic. It is a skill that requires physical habits. That is why you will be asked to take part in numerous exercises where you record yourself speaking on video, and then watching yourself. Learning presentation skills is like learning how to ride a bicycle. You simply have to do it numerous times and work past the wobbling and falling off parts until you get it right.
This course contains numerous video lectures plus several bonus books for your training library.
TJ Walker has been coaching and training people on their presentation skills for 30 years. Now, through the power of Udemy's online platform, he is able to give you the same high quality training that he gives in person to CEOs, Fortune 500 executives, and Presidents of countries. Only you can now receive the training at a tiny fraction of the normal fee for in-person training.
How long this course takes is up to you. The longest part of the course involves you speaking on video, critiquing yourself, and doing it over until you like it. But if you get to the point where you love how you look and sound when you present criticism it will be well worth the time spent.

The speaker is very clear, i love it and i can relate it to work life balance. i have learnt a lot already, the most interesting course i have learnt so far.
By Babadeinde Abimbola on 11/6/2025
This has been an amazing experience so far. I already feel more confident speaking in front of a crowd, given that I have put some of the advice into practice.

una gran selección de consejos tanto para preparar una presentación en público como de comunicación efectiva, en general.
By Stacia Weatherton on 7/28/2022
TJ, this is a great course and I have suggested it to several co-workers. I am disappointment to see it end, even after 31 hours! Even with my bachelor's degree in communication, I found value here and will refer back to several topics. Thank you!
By Jorge Lamas on 5/12/2022
It was a complete and well explained training, Mr. Walker knows his business very well. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience in the communications and presenting field. Jorge

Good course but title is deceptive as it's 99% on how to make various presentations and 1% on delivering criticism.
By Ebony Williams on 1/6/2022
The content was good, however, much of it was the same as the Complete Presentation Skills Masterclass. It did not have much information on effectively delivering criticism.
By V.Nithyashree on 5/12/2020
it is really quite different from other course which i attend before. the quick reply form the trainer is really amazing
