Communication Strategies for Creatives: Connect with Your Clients & Coworkers - OnDemand DesignCast

As a designer, you communicate in a uniquely different manner than your clients and corporate co-workers. At times, that can leave you feeling lost in a sea of words. But author and in-house veteran Andy Epstein has several strategies to help you communicate more effectively with the "verbals" in your office.

In this highly visual and information-packed presentation, you'll explore tactics for selling your creative concepts and establishing your team as a key player in your company's marketing and communication efforts. You'll even discover the true value of your unique communication style, and learn how to share that perspective with your non-designer co-workers.
