This interactive session will offer diverse perspectives on creating meaningful digital connections across different demographics. We will discuss choosing appropriate communication channels, crafting effective messages, navigating cultural and generational differences, and restoring emotional nuance in digital interactions. This session offers a fun way for participants to learn about being their authentic digital selves and upping their virtual communication game no matter the context or recipient.
