Communication for the Payroll Professional (On Demand)
Payroll practitioners are not only responsible for ensuring employees have been paid correctly and on time, but they must also be able to communicate legislative changes and respond to inquiries from internal and external stakeholders.
Join us for an interactive, on-demand three-part professional development seminar that will provide you with tools to en hance your communications skills, enabling you to add value to your organization by communicating in a clear and concise manner to a variety of audiences: employees, managers, stakeholders and suppliers.
Participants will have the opportunity to develop an action plan to hone their new skills and “make-it-stick” back at work. Sharp communication skills can help you be more organized, connect with others, and assist in leading a team.
This seminar was developed by MaxPeople in cooperation with the National Payroll Institute.
This is an activity-based on-demand seminar. Participants will need to book, at a minimum, 2 hours for each module.
On Demand: available until June 20, 2023
