The graphic reads "When National Geographic published its special issue on race, the magazine’s Editor-in-Chief Susan Goldberg decided to include a letter that explored how the magazine had dealt with the topic before turning the reportorial gaze to others. The headline said it all: “For Decades Our Coverage Was Racist. To Rise Above Our Past We Must Acknowledge It." Michele Noris and Susan Goldberg. changeagent2019.comnetwork.org”

Once your organization has realized its brand, embraced its culture and weighed its strategic choices, you are ready to lean into the most active stage of the communication process — that process starts with listening. Learn more at com-matters.org/attribute/li…

Communicating is an active process made up of three continuous and mutually reinforcing actions. It starts with listening, but involves equal parts learning and sharing. Doing all three well requires intentionality, focus, and time. www.com-matters.org"
