Thursday, November 4th - Kim Hankins
Virtual Chaos – Making Virtual Meetings More Productive!

It wouldn’t surprise you to know that most employees loathe those recurring virtual meetings where the most exciting part is when someone is caught NOT listening and is forced to admit it and ask that the question be repeated!

The fact is that very few are actually fully engaged in most virtual meetings.  Most are “multitasking…” the gracious way of saying that I am officially “on” the call but only intermittently engaged.

The leaders of these calls dislike them almost as much as the attendees but see them as a necessary evil because every company has employees in a variety of locations and must have some way to keep the lines of communication open.  The problem is that we have not been taught how to use this medium to communicate in a way that is productive and engaging…until today.

Kimberly Lewis Hankins blends the wisdom of radio production with her knowledge of communications finally bringing us specific skills that create a captivating and memorable “virtual exchange.”  Listen in and experience the difference immediately.

The only way to describe Kim is "compelling" - like a good book that you just can't put down. Kim is known for her disarming style and unique ability to get others to re-think their limitations. As a former therapist, she is insightful and uplifting. Attendees say they remember what Kim tells them years after they have seen her. Her message is relevant and encourages her audience to produce rigor they never thought possible.
