I’m looking for a course to help me communicate better with co-workers and upper management when 1. sharing ideas, 2. questioning down-from-the-top directives, and 3. reviewing others’ work. Oral is good but since I’m a remote worker, I need help with written communication as well. Anyone know of something on LinkedIn Learning, Udemy, and the like?

I don't have a set course in this but I have trained other writers in what you're asking, after years in corporate. If you'd like to set up a 1:1 mentor session I'd be thrilled to help:

Not a linkedin/online course, but it's a book that charged my life and how I communicate.
Ten stars. Incredibly good book for communicating with co-workers and upper management.

> If “violent” means acting in ways that result in hurt or harm, then much of how we communicate—judging others, bullying, having racial bias, blaming, finger pointing, discriminating, speaking without listening, criticizing others or ourselves, name-calling, reacting when angry, using political rhetoric, being defensive or judging who’s “good/bad” or what’s “right/wrong” with people—could indeed be called “violent communication.”

> What is Nonviolent Communication?
> NVC is a communication tool with the goal of first creating empathy in the conversation. The idea is that once people hear one another, it will be much easier to talk about a solution which satisfies all parties' fundamental needs. The goal is interpersonal harmony and obtaining knowledge for future cooperation.

Thanks, Kai. I’ll check it out. I did find something on LinkedIn on communication for introverts that had some helpful points.
