Mid-Atlantic Series: Virtual Communication Skills You Need Now

Virtual Communication Skills You Need Now

Event Description

The modern workplace is in constant flux—navigating hybrid models, employee burnout, and persistent uncertainty. In this environment, clear communication isn't just a skill; it's a lifeline. Research shows that during times of change, employees with transparent leaders are 2.3x more likely to have high levels of trust. 

This session is a high-impact, interactive lab designed to give you the tools to build that trust through a screen. The format is high-energy and hands-on — so please be sure to have your cameras on.
