WeiterlesenA Year-End Reflection: Culture, Collaboration and Communication

Whether we like it or not, people determine our effectiveness and competence in communication in less than one millisecond. After that, it’s all over. Moreover, when people are forming an opinion of us, verbal communication only accounts for 7% of what they remember. I don’t know about you, but this piques my interest. The truth…
WeiterlesenWhat Do You Get for the Millennial Who Wants Everything?
