September 16 – History alumna Dr. Lindsay Sarah Krasnoff on “Communicating Outside the Academy: Finding your voice and telling your story”

Many of us are used to expressing ourselves in the classroom or through the formulaic forums of academic research, writing, and conferences, but how do you communicate your expertise outside of academia? This workshop will provide a 360-degree approach to thinking about your professional communications strategy, messaging, and content (and what all of that means), how to find your voice(s), and how to tell your story to a variety of audiences across different platforms to keep it fresh and relevant.

Monday, 16 September, 4:00-6:00pm

Room 3317

Space is limited. Please reserve your spot – Register HERE.
