Making Ethics “Sexy” – Next Professional Development Luncheon, Feb. 15

How do you make seemingly dry topics engaging? At times, everyone is faced with having to communicate topics, projects or required actions that may not be viewed as positive, interesting or necessary … such as compliance reminders and mandatory training. However, any topic can be engaging and influence behaviors by using some creativity and humor.

During Valentine’s week, please join us at the next IABC/Chicago Professional Development Luncheon as Ruth Savolaine presents “Making Ethics Sexy,” which will include examples of recent Cisco ethics training videos produced with Second City Communications.

Wed. Feb 15, 2012
11am-1pm
Maggiano’s Banquet Room
516 N. Clark St.
Chicago, IL 60654
