Ever feel like you are speaking a different language than the people around you? You are not alone.
Join us for a humorous, thought-provoking look at how brain science, societal expectations, and gender stereotypes influence the way we communicate, listen, and interpret one another. Through relatable workplace experiences and a little laughter, we’ll explore how to bridge the communication gap, challenge assumptions, and make sure your voice isn’t just heard. It’s understood.
