Water Amplified: The Communication Revolution

This year’s Summit will focus on addressing the critical issue of communications in the water sector, and we’re excited to announce Tom Kunetz and Erin Mosley as featured speakers. They design and conduct interactive workshops and engaging lectures on a variety of personal and professional development topics. Together they open new ways for participants to awaken personal creativity, inspire innovative solutions, and build successful teams.

Working in an unprecedented collaboration with a roster of Summit speakers who are redefining the industry, Erin and Tom will guide participants through a cohesive full-day series of workshops to build skills in truly effective communications: day-to-day relationships with colleagues and mangers; higher visibility interactions from clients and customers to government regulators and officials; and more.
