Less is more: Crafting and delivering compelling messages

As a researcher, you are highly knowledgeable in your field, and writing a scholarly paper or presenting your latest findings is usually easy. But explaining your work to people outside your professional circle may be difficult, especially if you have limited time. In this workshop, you will learn and practice how to:

• Eliminate jargon to improve clarity and accessibility
• Distill your core message down to its most vital elements
• Deliver memorable messages tailored to short timeframes and diverse audiences
