Plan the recovery arc after a reputational event involving multi-stakeholder communication.
Building Communication Strategies for Multiple Stakeholders
Practical training in multi-stakeholder communication, grounded in real cases and applied to your own operation.
Course Overview
Silence during a crisis involving multi-stakeholder communication is itself a statement. Journalists covering this area of communications and media practice are working to a deadline you do not control. This programme builds this aspect of communications and media practice from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of multi-stakeholder communication to standardise and which to leave flexible. Plans for the wider communications and media practice agenda often fail at the handover point between functions. The content is relevant to those who own this strand of communications and media practice and to those who are held accountable for its results. The most reliable predictor of sound multi-stakeholder communication is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of this area of communications and media practice and supervised application. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to this part of communications and media practice that would make a visible difference.
