Communi-Keys: the keynote
In the spring of 2000, Helen Wilkie began publishing her free monthly electronic newsletter, "Communi-keys", which was intended to disseminate her thoughts and ideas on a subject about which she is passionate: communication in the workplace. She called it "Communi-Keys" because it is just that—a series of keys to communication. As well as specific tips on the various skills—such as writing, listening, presenting—Helen also muses on some of the reasons communication fails so often in business. These are intended as "Aha!" ideas that help readers see the topic in ways they may never have considered before. In the fall of that first year, Helen received a request from a client to present a program based on the information in "Communi-Keys", and this keynote was born.
If your audience has "heard it all" on the standard communication content, this is the perfect presentation to make them take another look. Its modular design makes this program ideal for adaptation to any particular communication issue your audience has, as well as those we all need to remember. They will laugh, listen, ponder,and perhaps even open up new avenues for communication with each other, to the eventual benefit of the organization.
