Command Skills Course
Command skills are a situational tool and are imperative in certain instances particularly when personal safety is an issue. Command skills are proven ways to take people out of their comfort zones. Some people have an apocryphal view of command skills. Their interpretation is wrong. One obvious example is someone shouting instructions at another person in an agitated manner.
