Interpersonal Skills for the Behavioral Consultant
Abstract
Join Stacie Neff, MS, BCBA, on the importance of soft or interpersonal skills that make or break the success of a consultant. Effective consultants can easily initiate meetings, respond professionally during interviews, actively listen during difficult conversations, and react to nonverbal and verbal behavior. Being a pro conversationalist may seem like an art form—you either have it or you don’t. Stacie, however, boils it down to the foundational components that help any professional communicate well with clients, families, and colleagues.
