the human invited some frens over. and one of them is sitting on the floor. gently rubbing my ears. they refer to me as the squishy wonder. and if my human doesn’t step it up. i’m going home with them
If I wrote a letter to myself,
I’d tell myself to make time for
The little things,
the simple joys,
the people I love.
Because in the end
that’s what really matters.

#LoveThemFirst is so powerful. It's really a love story: About teachers and staff dedicated to students, families and the community. This is one of the most important stories, and Lindsey and Ben let the students and staff tell it so beautifully. #K12prchat
Through it all
I’ve always believed
you would find me again.
If not in this life,
then in the next.
Water always finds its way
back to the sea
and we were an ocean.

We cannot afford to ask permission. As #internalcomms professionals, we need to trust our expertise and rely on that to shape our consultation to executives. #ChuckChatsLive
Balance scripted and off-the-cuff portions of presentations by scripting data points and relating stories off the cuff for authenticity. #ChuckChatsLive#executivecommunications
Paraphrasing @JasonAnthoine: We have to be brave as internal communicators and be willing to tell leaders what they DON'T want to hear #ChuckChatsLive Familiarity fosters trust: Get out and get to know staff; encourage execs to meet staff. #executivecommunications#internalcomms
You must have a plan to build or rebuild trust in leaders. Know your organization and the situation to effectively counsel how to rebuild trust. Also-share good AND bad in context. #ChuckChatsLive#internalcomms#executivecommunications
Authenticity is critical for executives and leadership communications. An executive's voice starts with his or her personal experience. Get to know your exec to help them with #storytelling. #executivecommunications#ChuckChatsLive
