Join us for a breakfast event that highlights the importance of communication in the tech industry – this time in Turku! As we all know, communication can be challenging and being a good communicator is a valuable asset. It leads to successful projects, satisfied customers, and a safe work environment where everyone feels heard. In this breakfast event we discuss the value of good communication from different viewpoints.
Our main speaker Elisa Heikura, also known as Koodarikuiskaaja, will start the event with an insightful look into women’s way of communication and what superpowers and pitfalls it might have. Next, we hear about successful communication tools Aleksis Tulonen, our Delivery Lead at Taiste, has gathered over the years from his roles at product development. For the last part Tiina Viljakainen, our Lead Designer at Taiste, will join Aleksis and Elisa for a discussion: Is it possible not to fail in communication?
You are most welcome to join us for some breakfast and an insightful morning.
