Lost in Translation: 3 Secrets to Communicating in Times of Chaos

Hi Conduits,

Have you ever found it uncomfortable to have conversations around a sensitive topic or felt you are consistently misunderstood when presenting or trying to debate a point? I know I have, and to be honest, it’s a bit frustrating. I learned it takes a combination of active listening and emotional intelligence to master how to communicate effectively.

And with the recent climate around uncomfortable conversations due to the social unrest from the murder of George Floyd and dealing with social distancing mandates from COVID, navigate communication in the time of chaos is more important than ever.

Our theme for July is focused on how to have effective conversations and I am pleased to announce we have Kristina Albert, a certified Executive Coach who will be sharing her 3 secrets to communicating in Times of Chaos.

Abstract:
Communication is the key to success in life, work and relationships, especially in uncertain times. It will decide whether we win or fail navigating a crisis.

But it doesn’t have to be that way!
