Talk & Workshop:
Talk & Workshop: The Art of Concision

Event Description

In a world where communication is king, being able to convey ideas clearly and effectively can make all the difference. Haiku, a traditional form of Japanese poetry, is a powerful tool for honing your communication skills. By using just a few carefully chosen words, Haiku encourages us to be concise, impactful, and to communicate with intention.

In this interactive workshop we'll first go through a guided "Active Imagination" journey to engage our seat of creativity and then tap into the power of Haiku through several exercises that will make accessing this type of concision easier and translatable for more ingestible pitches, presentations, and marketing purposes.
