Healthy Messages: Demonstrating Power in Life, Work, and Societal Messaging to Transform Our Present

The need for meaningful, high-impact communication is constant, but during periods of rapid change-when both the messages themselves and the channels used to deliver them are shifting-it becomes even more essential. There's no better time than now to be thoughtful and intentional about the impact you have on others. Healthy Messages: Demonstrating Power in Life, Work, and Societal Messaging to Transform Our Present and Future challenges conventional thinking/practices around power and influence as it relates to genuine service-the ultimate message. Combining disciplines in communication, behavioral health/social sciences, leadership, business, as well as organizational effectiveness and change, Tracee N. Jones explores how seasoned professionals, leaders, business owners, and anyone who desires to influence others can boost their impact. The author emphasizes that effective messaging is reliant on several factors, the whole or sum of its parts working together. Specific attention is given to personal (life), organizational (work), and societal (community) messaging. She also highlights how shifting toxic narratives within five prominent areas as it relates to societal/community messaging can bolster results, along with essential elements that raise standards of exceptional service.
