Stephanie Paul is a Writer, Producer, owner of AdvanceYour.org and Presentation Coach for TEDx productions. She asks why do so many organizations not see that an investment in communication and connection skills should be our number one priority? Statistics say 98% of your audience has never trained in listening skills, so how do you engage them? Research shows 93% of employers consider communication skills more important than a college graduates major! Multiple studies done internationally show the number 1 quality we look for in others socially, professionally and privately is humor and you are more likely to be 100% likable if you are sincere, transparent and have empathy. Listen as we explore these issues with Stephanie.

Do you like sports? Do you like exciting new products? If you do then you are going to really enjoy listening to this live interview with Todd Brooks from The Brand AMP on “The Impact of Disruptive Changes in Mature Markets.” When dealing with disruptive change, business professionals react in one of three ways. They either become part of the “establishment” that digs in their heals and sticks to proven methods that have always worked, they take a “progressive” approach to leverage “the new world order” to adapt their business, or they find “ground breaking” ways to leverage the “new world order” to revolutionize an industry. Which is best? Listen as Todd shares his insights on this issue and also how PR people should be taking advantage of the Internet to change their role within marketing.
Famous “Brookism’s” from this interview:
“If you have a dream don’t let anyone get in your way!”
“Word of mouth and doing great work is the best reference you can have.”
“You need to be able to communicate what makes you different in 90 seconds.”
“Put fear aside and focus on the potential of the situation!”
