Manage communication with regulators and officials about charitable media partnerships.
Designing Media Partnership Strategies with Charitable Bodies
A concise, decision-focused programme covering charitable media partnerships end to end.
Course Overview
Internal audiences learn about charitable media partnerships from the news unless you reach them first. Journalists covering the wider communications and media practice agenda are working to a deadline you do not control. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of this strand of communications and media practice rather than to abstract argument. Practitioner evidence points the same way: charitable media partnerships improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for this part of communications and media practice, not for observers of it. They leave able to brief senior management on this aspect of communications and media practice in terms that support a decision. The programme takes participants through charitable media partnerships end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. What blocks progress on the practice within communications and media practice is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The final module sets out how progress on this aspect of communications and media practice will be evidenced six months later.
