Embracing Change: Communication Strategies in Turbulent Times

Speaker Robert J. Bies, who presented at “standing room only” sessions at the CoreNet Summit in DC in October 2014 guided attendees through an exercise that focused on “storytelling” as a key communication tool to energize people, keep them moving forward to achieve their organization’s mission, and enable them to communicate effectively with C-suite and all levels of staff to obtain “buy-in” of change.
