Good communication starts when you remember other people have other needs.

Unspun Communications principal, Olga Michailides, has been communicating professionally for 25 years. She started with a plan to write everything and talk with no one, but life has its own plans. Olga soon found herself opening her mouth to share ideas like basing policies and practices on values. Heresies such as this led her from long stints in the public sector, and a very short stint in the private sector, to a career helping not-for-profit and government-related organizations to do good work in their communities. 

Though her focus is on organizational communications now, she has deep experience leading teams in digital communications, public and media relations, and branding as an experience. 

Olga listens to music too loudly, keeps locally owned businesses afloat, laughs at the wrong time, and may occasionally be found on a kick scooter rolling down hills. You can count on her to give you fair advice that may be hard to swallow.
