She taught several of the new employee training classes at Santa Cruz Public Libraries (CA). While working with her supervisor (Jane Schwamberger) as the Assistant to the Training Librarian at SCPL, she realized the importance of good communication in the workplace, which led to the increasing desire to teach others about its benefits. Now she and Jane are sharing their discoveries about effective communication through Listen Up! seminars and speaking engagements.Jane Schwamberger has experienced both highly successful communication and poor communication in her varied positions in New York, Florida, Washington, and California. She has worked in publishing and in retail. Most of her experience is in libraries. While Director of the New Port Richey Public Library (FL), she implemented a highly successful communication program with her staff, city staff, library board members, community agencies, and Friends of the Library.
