Breaking Static: Lessons in Clarity from Military and Aviation Communication

Corey Weddington

In a world where remote work relies heavily on chat, email, and video calls, clear and concise communication is essential. Yet, miscommunication and inefficiencies often plague even the best teams. These challenges are magnified when remote-first teams interact with traditional office-based teams, whose reliance on in-person conversations can clash with the structured, asynchronous methods of remote collaboration.

This talk draws inspiration from the high-stakes communication systems of the military, aviation, and maritime industries. These fields, forged through decades of experience and hard lessons learned from catastrophic failures, have perfected methods that prioritize clarity, brevity, and precision. Attendees will explore how these principles can be applied to improve communication in remote work environments.
