Speaker: John Lenker — Invioni
Your organization is suddenly center stage in front of hundreds and potentially thousands of people. Quick! What is it you have to say?
Web enterprises invest exorbitant amounts of resources developing the mechanics and information architecture behind their online resources, but often produce some of the most mundane, mediocre, and inappropriate presentations of information in any medium. Has our advancement in technology caused us to forget centuries of principles of effective human communication?
Lenker, author of Train of Thoughts, discusses methods that will help guide visitors to your organization’s mission and goals.
