Lost in Translation: How to Communicate with People Who Think Nothing Like You
We've been talking for almost all of our lives. But have we been communicating? According to research cited by SHRM, companies with just 100 employees lose an average of $420,000 per year due to miscommunication — and most of it is avoidable.
You don't have to be neurodivergent to struggle with communication. Put a marketing person and an engineer in the same room and watch what happens. Even among neurotypical people, differences in how we think, process information, and make decisions can make working together a challenge — especially across departments, cross-functional teams, or partnerships spanning multiple organizations.
This session gives leaders a neuroscience-backed framework for understanding why communication breaks down across cognitive styles, and practical tools for actually doing something about it — whether you are working across departments, across companies, or simply across a conference table with someone who sees the world nothing like you do
Target audience: Leaders, managers, HR professionals, and teams working across functions, departments, or organizations. Works equally well for technical and non-technical audiences. Available as a keynote (45–60 minutes) or extended workshop (half day). No technical requirements.
