“If you are doing two things at once, you are not doing anything,” John McIvor

John McIvor, Head of International Communications at Bank of America, led the fourth and final Forás Forum workshop of this series, sharing tips on how to stand out from the crowd. He discussed the prevalence of permanent distraction, a term he has coined to describe our ever decreasing attention span in smartphone obsessed modern world. John underlined that we must rethink how we communicate and provided tips on compelling communications – succinct messages, with engaging storytelling alongside advocates of your charity who support and strengthen your message
