Communicating Better with Dr. Paaige Turner and Jenna Sauber of NCA

Through the Noise #283

Dr. Paaige K. Turner// Executive Director// National Communication Association
Jenna Sauber // Media Relations & Public Outreach Manager // National Communication Association

Blake and Ernesto are joined by two women from the National Communication Association. Jenna Sauber represents the organization as their Media Relations & Public Outreach Manager and Dr. Paaige K. Turner who joined the National Communication Association about six weeks ago as their Executive Director after three decades in communications academia. NCA is more of a “scholarly society” than a standard trade organization and their 7,000 members across the field study the ways that people communicate. Just because everyone communicates doesn’t mean that they are doing it well and the research done by their members studies many different elements of communication such as gendered communications, over-talking, and visual and other nonverbal communications.
