Prositions, Inc. today announced the release of The Art of Business Communication , a new professional development course created and narrated by internationally acclaimed communication expert Mark Jeffries. The course is designed to help employees and leaders strengthen communication, influence outcomes, and improve productivity at a time when miscommunication and information overload are costing organizations billions each year. Research shows that miscommunication costs U.S. businesses approximately $1.2 trillion annually, contributing to an estimated 15% decline in productivity. Additionally, 86% of knowledge workers report communication challenges at work, with delayed responses, message overload, and misunderstandings cited as the most common issues. The good news is that effective communication delivers measurable results. Studies indicate that 72% of business leaders and 52% of employees report increased team productivity when communication improves, underscoring the direct link between communication skills and organizational performance. 1 A Practical, Modern Framework for Communication and Influence The Art of Business Communication provides employees and managers with a clear, actionable framework for communicating more effectively in meetings, emails, presentations, and high-stakes conversations. Drawing on decades of experience in finance, media, and global event hosting, Mark Jeffries introduces proven models such as LWAR (Listen, Watch, Anticipate, Respond) for situational awareness and the BRAINS (Bridging, Rationalizing, Asserting, Inspiring, Negotiating, Specializing) framework for understanding stakeholder psychology and influence. The course includes 14 entertaining microlearning modules, each delivering practical tools learners can apply immediately. Topics range from active listening and reading the room to translating complex ideas, storytelling, persuasion, negotiation, and building credibility in today’s fast-moving, information-heavy workplace. Flexible Delivery for Classroom and Self-Paced Learning The course is available in multiple formats to meet diverse organizational needs:   Classroom Kit Version includes: A Leader’s Guide PowerPoint slide templates Group and Individual Exercises and Assignments Reproducible Participant Workbooks and Handouts   Self-Paced Version is available in: SCORM formats (play on any LMS) The DashTrain  platform Microlearning modules Mobile-first nanolearning videos   This flexibility allows organizations to deploy the training as part of instructor-led workshops, self-paced eLearning modules, or a blended delivery approach. “Communication isn’t about talking more; it’s about connecting better,” said Mark Jeffries, creator and narrator of the course. “When people listen more effectively, anticipate what others need, and communicate with clarity and empathy, influence becomes natural. This course is about helping people be heard, understood, and remembered, no matter what the form of communication or the delivery method.” Frank Russell, CEO of Prositions, Inc., added, “Organizations are facing unprecedented levels of complexity, information overload, and a bombardment of AI-generated messaging. The Art of Business Communication gives employees and leaders practical tools to cut through the noise and create clear, concise messaging that delivers improved business results. By offering this course in a variety of formats, we’re making high-impact communication skills training accessible wherever and however people work.” The Art of Business Communication is available now.

Prositions, Inc. today announced the release of a new two-course Workplace Violence Prevention and Response training series designed to help organizations proactively address one of the most urgent safety challenges facing today’s workforce. The new programs, one for all employees and one for managers and leaders, are available now in SCORM and microlearning formats and are suitable for private-sector employers, healthcare organizations, and government agencies. Workplace violence continues to pose a serious and growing threat to employees and organizations nationwide. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Department of Justice, and OSHA,  approximately two million American workers report being victims of workplace violence each year , including threats, intimidation, and physical assaults.   Additionally, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, workplace violence continues to be a leading cause of fatal injuries at work, with approximately 500 workplace homicides annually  based on the most recently available national data. ( https://injuryfacts.nsc.org/work/safety-topics/assault/data-details/ ) Beyond the human toll, the financial impact is substantial. Some estimates place the cost of workplace violence to U.S. businesses in the hundreds of billions of dollars annually , reflecting medical expenses, lost productivity, legal liability, turnover, and reputational damage. Experts also note that many incidents go unreported; in healthcare alone, studies suggest up to 88% of workplace violence incidents are never formally reported , underscoring how official figures may underestimate the true scope of the problem. The new training series includes two complementary courses designed to meet the needs of different roles within the organization. Fundamentals of Workplace Violence Prevention and Response (All Employees) This course equips employees with practical knowledge to recognize early warning signs, understand the four recognized types of workplace violence, and respond appropriately to concerning behaviors. The training emphasizes an empathy-centered, human-focused approach to early intervention and provides life-saving awareness for extreme violence events. The course supports organizational compliance efforts and aligns with OSHA’s General Duty Clause, California’s SB 553, and the ASIS WVPI AA-2020 American National Standard. Workplace Violence Prevention and Response – The Manager’s Role Designed for supervisors and front-line leaders, this course builds on employee fundamentals and focuses on leadership responsibilities in prevention and response. Managers learn how to identify behavioral changes that may signal distress, document concerns appropriately, and foster a culture where employees feel safe reporting issues early. The program reinforces both legal obligations and leadership accountability while supporting alignment with OSHA, SB 553, and ASIS WVPI standards. Expert-Led Training with Real-World Credibility Both courses are authored and narrated by  James Sporleder , a nationally recognized expert in workplace violence prevention with more than 30 years of experience. Sporleder is a contributing member of the  ASIS International Technical Committee  responsible for revising the American National Standard on Workplace Violence Prevention & Intervention and is the founder of Regulus Group, where he designs widely adopted training programs used across healthcare, government, and private-sector organizations. “Workplace violence is no longer a rare or isolated issue; it’s a real business risk that organizations must address proactively,” said Frank Russell, CEO of Prositions, Inc. “These courses give organizations practical, scalable training that supports compliance, strengthens culture, and helps protect employees before situations escalate.” James Sporleder, author and subject matter expert for the series, added, “Effective workplace violence prevention starts with early recognition, empathy, and the courage to act. When employees and leaders understand what to look for and how to respond humanely and appropriately, organizations can intervene earlier and significantly reduce the potential for violence and harmful behavior.” The Workplace Violence Prevention and Response training series is available now in SCORM and microlearning formats and can be deployed through any learning management system, and is also included in the DashTrain microlearning platform.

As winter approaches, it’s crucial to prepare your vehicle for the challenging driving conditions before you travel. A bit of foresight can make a significant difference in ensuring your safety on the road. Here are three things to consider for safer winter driving: 1. Create and Maintain an Emergency Kit Having an emergency kit in your vehicle is a fundamental step in winter preparedness. You can create and maintain your winter emergency kit by: Including Basic Travel Supplies: Ensure your kit includes a first aid kit, jumper cables, and a flashlight with extra batteries. Packing Winter-Specific Items: Include items like blankets, extra clothes, hand warmers, bottled water, and non-perishable food to keep you comfortable if you get stranded. Using an Emergency Kit Checklist: Periodically inspect your emergency kit with a checklist to identify when you need to replenish missing or expired items, ensuring you’re always ready for unexpected situations. You can download our Winter Vehicle Emergency Checklist here. 2. Tailor Your Kit for Unique Needs If you're traveling with others, customizing your emergency kit can be incredibly beneficial. You can help tailor your kit to your travel needs by: Considering Passengers: Think about what additional items might be necessary for co-workers or family members, such as medications or comfort items. Personalizing for Comfort:  Include personal items that may ease anxiety or provide comfort during a stressful situation, like a favorite snack or a book. Adjusting the Quantity:  Adjust the quantity of supplies based on the number of passengers to ensure everyone has what they need. 3. Prepare Before the Storm Hits Timing your preparation is essential to avoid being caught off guard by severe weather. You can help prepare yourself by: Planning Ahead: Take the time to prepare your vehicle and emergency supplies before winter storms arrive. Staying Informed:  Keep an eye on weather forecasts and adjust your travel plans accordingly to avoid dangerous conditions. Practicing Safe Driving: Familiarize yourself with winter driving techniques, such as how to handle skids and the importance of maintaining a safe following distance. By taking these steps, you not only improve your safety but also equip yourself with the confidence to handle whatever winter throws your way. Remember, preparation is key. At Prositions, we offer a variety of training courses to help you and your employees stay safe and secure online.
