Morning Session – Table V

Table 5, picture 1

TABLE V

Facilitators:
David Birdsell, Dean of School of Public Affairs, Baruch College
Hank Cochrane, National Accounts Manager, Penguin Group USA

Questions:
1) Think back to an instance of miscommunication that involved you in some way. How did you recognize the problem? Why did it arise? How might it have been avoided? What common themes arise in your discussion of this question?

4) What challenges do we face in communicating within increasingly diverse classroom and business environments? How do we best navigate cultural or even generational differences in working to nurture effective speaking and writing across academic and business contexts?

In response to the questions for the morning session, Table 5 created a MySpace Page.
