I agree @SketchGrp - Tell more stories! #Communication without #storytelling is like making a pie without the filling. It helps engage your audience with what you need to say.
So many insights and practical tips in yesterday's @IABCAPAC webinar from @Soundbyte11 on storytelling for leadership. It's so true that facts and figures just don't get cut through. Tell more stories, people! 😁 #storytelling #leadership #communications

It's so easy to withdraw when you're struggling. This is a great initiative by Mentally Healthy and shows we are not alone in the struggles we face. A recommended read for anyone in the #communication, #media, #creative and #marketing sectors.
For many #professionalcommunicators talking about the things affecting our #mentalhealth is not easy. To change this, Mentally Healthy has released Heart on my Sleeve which shares how recent events have affected other #communication leaders. bit.ly/2E3l2vo #IABCAPAC
‘The hashtag serves to pollute the national discussion of the Victorian COVID-19 outbreak.’ Some food for thought from @Timothyjgraham on the spread of misinformation through #socialmedia.

An #accurate guide to #Victorian government press conferences in a COVID-normal world.
Here's the cheat sheet for the Dan Andrews presser: 11am = not terrible After 12pm = bad Wearing a suit = real bad news Sports jacket = moderately bad news Northface jumper = it's the weekend Wearing a suit on the weekend after 12pm = shit's fucked

What makes this more interesting is that the insights are based on feedback from communicators across #APAC. Worth a read for everyone with an interest in professional communications.
What lies ahead for #professional #communicators across #APAC in the next 12 months? The @Isentia and @IABCAPAC Comms Agenda 2021 looks at the #future of the #communications profession according to you - the communicators of APAC. Get your copy via bit.ly/2X0EQ9f @IABC
