Status Quo Communication is A CAUSE FOR CONCERN!
Virtulization, the dawn of AI, and transformation as the new norm in organizations all point to the importance of effective communication in a dynamic world. Consider these facts:
- $2.1 Trillion is lost from poor communication annually
- 90% of Transformations fail because of poor communication
- 50% higher turnover in organizations with poor communication
- Employees waste 2 hours each day to poor communication
Join us this month for a fascinating discussion with Brian Glibkowski, Author, Professor and CEO of Semplar Science.
Passionate about the role of questions and answers in business and society, Brian conducted research on the six WH-questions (what, why, when, where, who and how) and published academic research which was recognized by the Association of Human Resource Development as one of 10 articles that will shape the 21st century!
His book, Answer Intelligence - Raise your AQ, is the framework which creates the ability for people at all levels of an organization to provide elevated answers and increase their communication skills.
