Her workshop –
We live and work in noisy worlds, where every minute of every day we are bombarded with messages from multiple channels. In these environments, it’s hard for change communication to cut through, let alone resonate with our audiences. On top of the noise, we have a tendency to revert back to communication tactics that are tried and tested … but not necessarily effective in busy, multi-generational, hybrid workplaces.
We have to start thinking differently about change communication, which is where this workshop comes in! In this clinic, you’ll participate in a live, hypothetical scenario where you’ll be challenged to stretch your thinking, and become a creative communicator. You’ll be guided by your facilitator, who will help shape your ideas by sharing her years of experience, and knowledge of best-practice change communications, backed by behavioural science.
You’ll leave the clinic armed with a tonne of ideas to level up your change communication, and really make a difference
