Keynote Presentation
Communication: The Missing Link That Connects Mission and Performance
This talk challenges executives and managers to look at their companies mission and values statements and notice the absence of any communication ideals. This is often a stunning revelation. It then encourages the audience to consider the benefits of adopting and modeling the 5 principles of Beth Levine's book Jock Talk as the basis for engendering better communication skills for themselves and their organizations, thereby making their businesses stronger.
