The Lost Art of Communication

As the world went virtual (hybrid at best), 2020 was basically a learning curve in...how to use Zoom. Businesses around the world have had to adapt and (buzz word alert) *pivot* 🛋 to accommodate the changing landscape of interaction. For some this meant learning to work from home, while for others, it marked a shift in their entire career.

In this episode, we pick Garrett’s brain to

📌how to maintain audience engagement and stay engaged when you’re the listener
📌how to create your own “virtual handshake” (no sweaty grasp necessary).
