Sara Canaday explains how to navigate different scenarios, such as disagreeing with coworkers, supporting unpopular decisions, and communicating bad news. In each scenario, she explains the right mindset and the right words to achieve positive results. With these strategies, you will have the skills you need to take charge of conversations and increase your impact for the moments that matter.

 

LinkedIn JEDI Collection Learning Course

Marketing to Diverse Audiences

Good marketing reaches an audience where they are. And it’s crafted by people who take the time to understand who their audience is and what they actually want. When marketing campaigns come across as tone-deaf, it’s often because the campaign’s creators leaned on their assumptions instead of investigating the nuances of their target market.

In this course, instructor Jonathan Jackson shares strategies for checking your assumptions at the door and reaching diverse audiences with organic marketing messages. Get insights on how to create tailored messaging, as well as how to build a community for—and by—diverse audiences. Plus, hear from a panel of experts on why diverse marketing should be a critical part of your marketing strategy today and into the future
