About this Event

Please join the Portland State Business Accelerator and Elsa Henderson, facilitator, coach, and educator.

Communication can be difficult depending on the topic or context. We’ve all been there: a conversation you are putting off or would rather not have. A discussion you want to have, but don’t know how to broach. In this virtual lunch and learn, Elsa will introduce a few skills to approach such conversations with greater ease. She will provide a conceptual framework and an opportunity to practice.

This session is for anyone who wants to enhance their communication!
