Next was a wide-ranging talk on the arc of #communication studies by Godfrey Steele at #UWI St. Augustine. There's a lot of history here, but also important arguments for perspectives outside of major Western universities https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0Tksimo5DY (3/9)

Next was an excellent panel at #UWI's St. Augustine Campus on #EmotionalIntelligence in #business with Shian Ottley-Reid, Cherisse Permell-Hutton, Adam N. Sabga, Amala Luncheon, and Nigel Edwards. This topic has only gotten more important since the onset of the pandemic, and the panel brings a compelling mix of research and field experience that makes the discussion particularly rich. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueOag69Xl_k&t=6s (4/9)
