Leadership Episode - Mission Drift - Communication | E71
We are continuing our Leadership Series on Mission Drift. Our focus today will be on the communication of our vision. We also have a Need to Know that I address. The topic is how librarians can help with Project Based Learning. Librarians can be technology experts and provide another space for learning.
I’m going to talk about four different topics within the communication. The first one is foundational. Who is your audience? We talk about what value PBL will bring to these audiences. We also talk about your role in communicating your vision, the role of others, and the impact of good or bad communication.
