About Us
|
|
Interact was founded on the wisdom that Leadership is not a technique and Communication is not an impersonal science. You bring to them what you have--your authenticity. We assume your talent and giftedness when you walk through the door. Techniques are not everything. We're interested in the unique voice that you bring.

Patrick McLean
|
|
Patrick McLean demystifies the process of clear and effective writing for business people who have decided they don't write very well.
A 15 year veteran of creative advertising, Patrick's humorous and humanistic approach to writing will change the way you think about it forever.
Before writing happens on the page, it must first happen in your head. Yet most instruction focuses on the page rather than the person.
Patrick's approach will improve your writing by helping you focus your thoughts and reducing anxiety. It is this process that makes writing clear, succinct and relatively painless to produce.
