Discover Who You Are With Online Video

The Digital Slice Podcast is brought to you by The Friedman Group, LLC

The classroom, as a learning environment, can teach you a lot given the right guidance from your instructor. What is key is not how much your teacher knows but how much he encourages open communication by leveling the playing field between teacher and student as well as allowing opportunities for self-discovery.

In the business world, the same open communication is the key to fostering engagement with customers. While written content is considered a staple, live video as an interactive medium of communication is emerging as the platform of choice if you are looking to move your business to a higher level. Incorporating essential classroom strategies and humanness with how you do business can prove to be very effective.

Professor Nez is not your average teacher. He has a powerful teaching-learning approach where he is not the center of ultimate knowledge but significantly the facilitator who sets the stage for experiential learning. He is a career coach, author, and Writing and Communications professor at Chapman University. He is a strong advocate of storytelling as evident is his speaking engagements nationwide and his live video presence. He works with various brands and businesses to implement effective social media strategies.
