Cultural Effect specializes in communication consulting and services for SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, and TECHNICAL PROFESSIONAL SECTORS.

Our mission is to coach, professionally develop, and innovate methods and skills for individuals in their desire or business need to create collective and authentic understandings.

We do this by working with people and organizations with deep or focused scientific and/or technical knowledge to more easily and create wider understandings of their work.

~ COMMUNICATING WITH LAY AUDIENCES

How to foster understandings with folks who don't share your background and experience. (Hint: It's not about "them" very much)

How to successfully engage with a more diverse environment - whether the perceived gaps are in literacy, agenda, cultural divides, or even competitive landscapes.

All about RISK COMMUNICATION methods and practices - how to assure safety or appropriate alarm where Risk is not collectively or effectively understood.

(Risk in this context can mean personal health, environmental health, business continuity, disaster or emergency preparedness, even financial systems.)

How to use the Expert Model appropriately - sharing what is known, what is "unknown", and how to prepare yourself as an "expert".

~ INTERACTING and WORKING WITH with peers and associates COLLABORATIVELY

How to plan and execute when a multi-hierarchy exists

Assure that the time, energy, and resources are available and desired to achieve "win-win"
