MI SAF has provided the following meeting synopsis: “Forestry is more than just good management and cruising timber. We often take for granted the day-to-day human interactions we have, let alone the message we are sending to the broader public. The perils of poor communication can be high, but the rewards when understanding your audience and thoroughly conveying your message can be even higher. The goal of this conference is to hear from professionals who have seen communication between individuals in the forestry community at its best, and at its worst. They will provide ideas and recommendations that can be used not only in your career, but in your personal lives as well. We will hear from leaders of numerous certification programs, natural resource work groups, members of local law enforcement, and individuals who study the science of communication. How do you talk a landowner out of doing something unethical? How do you convince the public that trees should be cut or conserved? How do you discern which certifications are appropriate? Have you ever felt like you could have negotiated something better? We’ve invited people from all sectors of the forestry community to help answer these questions and we want to hear your input! Join us and learn what they have to say.”
