I've been in OD for nearly 20 years, but my socks were literally blown away while attending Deb Shannon's recent session on Conversational Intelligence®.  Deb shared her deep-seeded knowledge of both the science and emotional building blocks of conversation in a manner that was impactful and approachable. The exercises that Deb devised as part of the experiential learning segment were so meaningful, I found myself thinking of all of the leaders that I wanted to share this new information with immediately!
