On flight to San Diego to speak w/ my Finn Partner colleague at PRSA meeting. Topic: How PR folks can get Leaders to Trust them. Critically important in every field. One key tip: since PR folks speak for the leader/ institution, they need to know that leader and his/her voice, values and modes of expression. Hint: try reading what leader has written or said in print. Learn key phrases and key themes. See you there! Then off to Vancouver BC to do day long session w/ area school counselors on how to deal effectively w/ trauma in the schools. We’re doing 15 strategies including hands engagement that can be used at schools Immediately w/ handouts. Focusing on 3 A’s: activities, actions, approaches. Ok, a touch of theory too. See you there. I return to DC to change suitcases, pet my pets and see my partner and head to VT for release of Lady Lucy’s Ghost Quest. Fitting for Halloween and reading to kids at Molly Stark on Halloween morning (wee handout too). See you there. Then back to DC and event in my building Hallow-Wine night w/ a book raffle. Dinner in costume w/ friends! Will be a ghost obviously for all book events. See you there. If I can manage this in the right order w/ the right books/ activities, that will signal that I haven’t lost my mind yet. And Go Nats!
