Episode 063 - Celina Chien begins her conservation career using photography to share biology stories
Season 2 · Episode 63
Tuesday, March 10, 2020 • Duration 52:07
Conservationist and Photographer, Celina Chien, is giving a voice to wildlife in the age of the Anthropocene.
"I stumbled across a few other photographers and I realized that I've never even considered it before as a medium of \ communicating conservation and communicating science but I found that it was the perfect bridge between conservation and scientists and the academic world and the public because, you know, we hear all these statistics and we hear about all these horrible facts, you know, the sixth mass extinction and you know it makes us feel helpless. And also it's just so big and abstract and having photos that can be shown, emotional connection between people and environmental issues. I think it can really start a discussion and spark action." Celina shares in her interview about finding photography and using it for science.
In this episode she shares how a new conservation starts out in the field and why she connected with wildlife.
Episode 062 - Communicate Like A Conservation Project Manager
Season 2 · Episode 62
Tuesday, March 3, 2020 • Duration 39:20
One of the most powerful skills to master as a conservation project manager is communication, put simply know when it is time to talk, and not talk just for the sake of talking. We’ve all been to one of these meetings where someone just keeps talking about something that was covered already. Wishing the project manager would redirect the conversation back to the agenda. Or wishing the project manager would just end the meeting so the team can get back to work. Perhaps you are a conservation project manager or want to be one, today I share tips on how you can boost your communication skills so you can be wiser, listen to understand, and respect the time of your team members. Keep your meetings short, concrete, and frequent. Remember to include everyone, complement each other, don’t compete for attention. Because… as George Bernard Shaw states “The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.”
