Communication careers are many and varied—but certain skills and behaviors can take you almost anywhere. Learn from alumni who have been successful in one field, and then jumped into another. Why did they make the big change? What did they decide to bring with them? And—given how fast each of our fields is continually changing—how can we all embrace ongoing adaptability even if we don’t decide to shift industries?
Panelists: Nancy Armstrong (COM'98), founder of MAKERS; Jon Banner (CGS'87, COM'89), EVP, Pepsico Global Communications; Naja Harvey (COM '18), associate copywriter at Craft Worldwide (formerly at Weber Shandwick); Dorothy Davis (COM’76), president, Dorothy M. Davis.
