What's A Help Card? 

A help card is a double-sided laminated 8.5 x11 inch card that focuses on a single subject, and provides focused information that you can apply directly in the workplace. They can be used as  job aids (reminders), or as guides for a particular process (team development, strategic planning etc.). Most of the help cards deal with some aspect of communication, since that IS our specialty.
