Why is communication important?

Exercise

As a human being, member of society, you must clearly state your mind. It’s a responsibility. It is the way you identify yourself. Otherwise you don’t know who you are and why you are here.

Ai Wei Wei

We have to articulate ourselves.

-Otherwise we would be cows on a field.

Group exercise 1

1 Define your objective - what your message is designed to do

2 Define your audience - who you want to have the attention of

-

3 Define your channel - how you plan to get your message to them

4 Define your offer - what you offer and expect from them

Take notes of your conversation, so you can share your main insights!

[W]hat people want today goes well beyond technology and design. They don’t just want four wheels and a means to steer, or to be surrounded by music and information wherever their eyes and ears may roam. What people are looking for now is a way to reconnect with their values: to ground how they can, will, and should live in the world.
