The Orderly Conversation: Part 2 Artwork

The Orderly Conversation Podcast

Business communication exists to move business forward. All too often, this doesn’t happen effectively or efficiently. Meetings grind to a halt, presentations go off the rails, training sessions turn upside down, and everyone walks away frustrated. You and your business deserve better. This podcast offers communication solutions for business leaders, managers, and learning & development professionals that can be implemented in any organization with people on every rung of the corporate ladder. Dale Ludwig, Founder, and Greg Owen-Boger, VP, of Turpin Communication discuss their first book, “The Orderly Conversation,” which is the foundation of all their work as communication consultants, trainers, and coaches. Barbara Egel, writer, editor, and communication consultant conducts the interviews.Listen to this podcast and learn more at www.turpincommunication.com
