Beyond Email: How to Actually Be Heard at Work

Beyond Email: How to Actually Be Heard at Work Online

Clear communication is the key to getting things done—but it’s not just about what you say. In this session, we'll explore with our guest facilitator, Leslie Jimenez, Human Resources Business Partner for Student Development and Campus Life, active listening, message framing, and adapting your style to different audiences so your voice truly lands.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify barriers to effective communication in a university setting
  • Practice active listening and ask clarifying questions to reduce misalignment
  • Tailor communication styles to different audiences and contexts
  • Use storytelling and framing to make your message stick

Key Questions:

  • What’s one communication habit I could improve to be more effective?
  • How do I ensure my message is understood—not just delivered?
  • What’s the difference between being heard and being understood?

RealTalk @ Montclair is where we get honest about the human side of the work we do by taking a fresh spin on our monthly webinars. Each month, we tackle the messy, nuanced, and often unspoken challenges that shape our day-to-day experience at Montclair. From conflict and tough conversations to emotional intelligence and collaboration, we go beyond theory to share real strategies, stories, and insights that resonate with Montclair employees. RealTalk @ Montclair is built to break silos, spark connection, and help you show up stronger at work.
