Description: Now is an amazing time to be communicating! With so many ways to connect with people and more data than ever about how people communicate, we still commit communication miscues. Organizations are faced with navigating the communication styles across generations, and also the differences within each generation. Businesses must be nimble as communication technologies advance, and become adept at wielding the explosive growth of social media. This session will provide ways to effectively communicate using the principles and techniques of Operational Excellence that impact and include all generations in the workforce. Dynamic leaders will review past “crimes” in communications and introduce tools to innovate and empower employees while improving communications.
