What do you communicate through body language? What do your text message choices say about you? How much influence do you hold in a conversation?
Dr. Shawn Wahl, head of the department of communication, has served as a corporate trainer and executive coach for a variety of organizations, and now he’s written five books to improve communication skills. His latest book, “Communication and Culture in Your Life,” describes the importance of a global perspective and treating all people with dignity and respect.
One of his other books focuses on communication in a digital age, specifically the qualities of good human communication and how to maintain those qualities when it’s being mediated through technological devices.
Great communication skills are essential to an effective leader. And through his work, Wahl is preparing the next generation of leaders to be culturally competent.
