Please join us online for our next BAC meeting on June 24 at 8:30 a.m. on Zoom.
Topic: Active Listening and Assertive Communication
Facilitator: Jen Oleniczak Brown
Active listening is exactly that – it’s intentional and a choice. Showing that you are listening to someone is one of the most powerful gifts you can give – and being assertive not only clarifies communication, it also helps the person you’re talking to. So why do we choose to multitask while listening and assume folks understand expectations? Join Jen Brown, founder of The Engaging Educator and Fearless Winston Salem, for an interactive hour of activities to build and flex your active listening and assertive communication skills.
Talking points:
The importance of attending to your audience
Leading a meeting and leading in a meeting—and how to excel at both
How to master networking and small talk—no matter how introverted you are
Tips for preparing yourself for those “impromptu” moments
Once you have registered, a link to the meeting will be sent to you.
