Hello everyone,

Welcome to Word-Voice.

Wondering why this name? It began like this. I was thinking of an appropriate name for this portal and many that I thought were already taken up by businesses to talk about their new apps, social media geeks to name their blogs, psychologists to persuade patients to leave their inhibitions, and even yoga gurus to teach people how to stay calm. The last one was more surprising than others. Staying calm while getting hooked on to social media? I got the point… The world is in a rapid fire mode.

But what really did all this convey? Voices, voices, voices. Volley of words. Lots of voices. It gave me an insight into the need to choose the correct words, be in the loop, create the buzz, and sustain it. Hence, the title, Word-Voice.

Through this portal I intend to connect with you, share topics that draw my attention, and listen to your opinions. Frequently discussed topics include the changing media landscape, internal communications, integrated marketing, brand management, and social networking. Because I belong to the communications field, my bent toward these topics might seem obvious. But the point is that words are not only the tools of the professionals. Words surround us, support us, dominate us, express us, and even hurt us or make us happy. Actually, it is all about words and the impact that they create…whether they are uttered or quietly expressed.

I invite those who believe in the power of words to share some of theirs to make the thread of our relationship grow longer.

Stay warm and keep voicing!

Thank you.

Best,

Anchal Nayyar
