Steve McCann spent more than three decades leading, managing and collaborating with teams and people in high risk and disparate places - as an Army Officer, in the UN and for fifteen years in humanitarian risk management.
Increasingly this work included more and more remote and hybrid communication, where the opportunities to miscommunicate increase with the dislocations of place, time and culture.
Direct experience of the cost and misery created by avoidable communication failures made him a strong advocate of the learnable strategies and practical actions for great human-to-human communication.
