Kathy's Connection

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND CAREER FACILITATOR BACK ON TRACK LEARNING

It feels so good to be back into my learning mode. Last week I attended an early morning breakfast put on by the Portland State University. Three CEOS shared their experience working through "change" in an organization. The key, of course, was how people were communicated with through the process.

A recent survey illustrated the need for "soft skills" has resurfaced as crucial for today's workforce. Example: How do you communicate what you mean by "culture" and "leadership" so everyone is on the page? Certainly, has gotten me thinking about how I would explain these two words---not easy!

BUSINESS COMMUNICATION TIP:

Buy 31 identical folders. Number 1-31 for
each day of the month. When you have tickets
or invitations, put them in the appropriate folder.
You will always know where they are at any given
time.
