Mod #15: Communication As Currency Syllabus Contributor: College & Career Readiness Strategist Dr. Christina M. Lapierre We tend to underestimate the power of the words we use and how we communicate with each other. It’s never too late to listen to how we’re expressing ourselves, conveying our value(s) and ideas, and improving our process and approach. It’s especially important to share that understanding with students working toward their careers. In this episode, Christina shares just how powerful of a currency communication can be. About Christina Through her translator’s lens, Christina turns high-level educational jargon into community-facing programs that foster equity and self-advocacy. When it comes to Strategic Architecture, she designs frameworks that connect local Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) with the students who need them most. And when it comes to leadership, it’s about Leadership with Heart: She’s passionate about building "The Readiness Bridge"—ensuring that being "college eligible" actually means being "college ready".
