Course Overview

The first version of a story about live interview improvisation tends to become the reference version. Reputation built over years is re-assessed publicly within hours when the communications and media practice discipline is mishandled. The course sets out a working method for the practice within communications and media practice that participants can apply the week they return. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to live interview improvisation in an order their organisation can absorb. Across sectors, teams that rehearse this part of communications and media practice outperform teams that only plan it. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of the wider communications and media practice agenda and supervised application. A common pattern is strong design of live interview improvisation paired with weak follow-through. It suits anyone whose decisions touch the practice within communications and media practice, in large organisations and small ones alike. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this strand of communications and media practice sustainable.
