Communicate Better.
Every public communications campaign offers four opportunities to connect with a target audience. Fail to connect at any one point and you may lose your audience entirely. When you recognize The Four Connecting Points, however, and know how to capitalize on each one, you will get more out of every communications dollar you spend.

Telling stories helps us understand ourselves, bond with friends, and enter larger communities, but as professionals we tend to relegate storytelling to a place outside of work. Learn how this uniquely powerful communications tool can help advance your cause in Storytelling as Best Practice and in the online version of this workshop, Storytelling iSchool.

Present Better.
Do you know the first question to ask yourself before planning a presentation? How about the five mistakes that most undermine presentations? And can you identify the three elements that audiences eagerly look for in presentations they attend? You'll get the answers to these and many other questions in "Why Bad Presentations Happen to Good Causes," a workshop based on the book of the same name and geared especially to the needs of public interest presenters.

Meet Better.
What's the quickest way to increase organizational effectiveness? Improve your meetings. Your organization invests countless hours in meetings every week, so why not invest 90 minutes to make sure they actually accomplish something. "Dramatically Better Meetings" is an interactive and funny workshop that has already helped numerous public interest groups, businesses, and schools.
