Finding the Connection: Meaningful Interaction at Home & Work
Tuesday, June 27, 2017

Americans feel less connected and more divided than ever before. Electronic devices are partly to blame, but the erosion of our conversational skills lies with each of us. The only way forward is to start talking to each other, says Celeste Headlee, TV and radio show host and author of We Need to Talk: How to Have Better Conversations (out in September). In 30 minutes, Headlee will discuss her simple strategies for having satisfying conversations online and in person, at home and at work.

Join us on Tuesday, June 27th at 1:00 pm Eastern for this call-in event.

Dial-in information will be provided upon registration.
