Women in Ag Book Club Announcement

 

The Nebraska Women in Agriculture program and Annie’s Project has selected “Exactly What to Say,” for the upcoming fourth quarter book club, which will conclude with a virtual discussion on December 19 at 10 a.m. Central Time. 

“Exactly What to Say” written by Phil M Jones provides principles and examples that aim to help individuals grow their confidence in conversation. The author refers to “magic words” that will help people find success when interacting with others.

The book club discussion will be led by Lisa Kaslon, the Professional Development Coordinator for Nebraska Extension, who coordinates the development and delivery of workshops that aim to serve professional, educational, and training needs of faculty and staff.

At past Women in Ag Conferences, Kaslon has discussed building stronger connections to become more effective communicators. To keep the conversation going on effective communication, Kaslon recommended “Exactly What to Say” for the Women in Ag Book Club.

Registration for the book club is free and can be found at go.unl.edu/book. The first 24 registrants will receive a complimentary copy of the book mailed to them.
