iCAP presents:

Getting your Message Across


World-renowned science communication expert Jean-luc Doumont shares his engaging and practical lecture on how to organize messages into an effective story, regardless of medium. Open to the entire UMass Chan community, including students, postdocs, faculty, and staff. Please register if you plan to attend. 

Workshop description: 
No matter the medium—a presentation, a document, a graph, a poster, a curriculum vitae, or other still—communication boils down to one question: do you get your message across? True to Jean-luc’s quest for the essentials, this lecture takes a transversal view at the traditional forms of communication to discuss how to convey a message verbally and nonverbally, and how to organize messages into a story—in any medium. 

About Jean-luc Doumont: 
An engineer (Louvain) and PhD in applied physics (Stanford), Jean-luc Doumont is acclaimed worldwide for his no-nonsense approach, his highly applicable, often life-changing recommendations on a wide range of topics, and Trees, maps, and theorems, his book about “effective communication for rational minds.” For additional information, visit www.principiae.be.

We hope to see you there!
