Think Fast Talk Smart: Communication Techniques · 299. Choose The Right Channel: How Stanford Finds Its Voice · 22 Jun 2026 podcast

We can all speak.

And therefore, we think communications means just that.

And communications, if you do it well, is an art.

And not everybody, to your point, can do that, right?

And so we actually do.

We offer that kind of training to faculty, to staff, to others.

And it's as simple as I mentioned.

I started out talking about the rule of three, right?

You have three things that you want to communicate and think about.

And you just tell people even something like that, come up with your top three things that you want to say, and that's life-changing for them.

They think about that, they process, and then they are able to more clearly communicate their thoughts.

We can help people on camera.

We can put them in front of a video camera and then help them see how they come across when they're communicating.

We talk to them about their work and kind of walk them through how to explain that in a way that is understandable, because a lot of people are very good at being able to explain their work in the way that they understand it, but not necessarily in the way that other people would understand it.

So there's a lot of things that we can do along those lines that we really actually enjoy doing.

We think it's a big part of our job.

So it's such an interesting question, Matt.

I don't know if I would have started out my career or even told you a decade ago that crisis would be one of the things I would do most and I would spend so much time on or that I would enjoy because I don't think anybody can say they enjoy a crisis.

But in some ways, it's one of the most interesting parts of doing communications for an organization.

So one of the things I've really loved doing the last few years in particular is going out and teaching about how to do crisis.
