COVID-19 & Internal Communication

We are in unprecedented times. Whether you have people in your organization working remotely, from the office or not at all, we all have people that make our organizations run. How you communicate with them during this time matters. It will have implications for your organization now and in the future. In this presentation, social media strategist and storyteller Katie Cothron will help attendees think about practical and empathetic ways to communicate with your internal audiences so they know you are listening, understanding and working with them to get things done in this new normal.
