In this era of transformation, communications are more challenging than ever. With AI generating reams of confident-sounding content, you might wonder:
Are strategic writing skills still important? The answer is a resounding yes.

Writing is thinking. Your ability to think strategically and communicate clearly has never been more valuable.

When you write, you activate the part of you that thinks critically, connects with your audience and taps into your humanity. AI is helpful, but your Write Brain unlocks the strategic insights that drive effective communication.

In this six-hour workshop, we’ll explore communications practices in fresh ways for a new world. Connect with the power and potential of your Write Brain.

About the Presenter: Mary Pat Nimon is president of WordsFresh, a communications agency that specializes in message strategy and writing. She leads a team that serves global corporations, including Procter & Gamble, GE Appliances, Agilent Technologies and Yum! Brands. Her recent interest is exploring the intersection of AI and human creativity.
