Brent Boynton, Emmy-nominated Television Journalist to Present on Communications Skills Improvement

RENO, Nev. - Sept. 6, 2016 - PRLog -- As project managers, communication is our biggest single function. But how many of us communicate effectively? How many of us would be more successful if we did?

Decades of experience as a professional communicator in television news, politics, education and emergency management has taught Brent Boynton the universal principles of communication. And it's given him a few things to talk about.

Learn how the principles of news writing can make you more effective in dealing with your clients. See how the backbone of emergency communication can help you include all your stakeholders. Grasp the importance of the other person's point of view…and the value of listening.
