Your 2017 Communications Tips!

  • Stay connected. It’s important to stay well-informed across an array of topics. You never know who you’ll encounter at a conference or what on-the-fly question a reporter will ask.
  • Have a game plan. Make a list (or if you already have one revisit and revise) to plan and prepare for upcoming events, engagements OR to assess the effectiveness of your crisis plans.
  • Refresh your memory. It’s never a bad idea to “refresh” and “polish” your communications skills. Think of your next speaking engagement and what you can do to better prepare.
  • Have a 30-second elevator speech. Make sure your speech is ready and rehearsed for chance networking encounters.
  • Practice. At CommCore we believe that practice makes for successful delivery. Practicing more than once will help you appear confident, relaxed and prepared.
