Course Overview
Silence during a crisis involving press conference hosting is itself a statement. Credibility in the communications and media practice discipline is spent quickly and rebuilt slowly. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about the wider communications and media practice agenda. Comparative studies of press conference hosting across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. The course covers the practice within communications and media practice at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a communications plan for this area of communications and media practice as they go. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on press conference hosting are used deliberately. Buying a tool rarely fixes this aspect of communications and media practice; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. The programme closes with an action plan for the practice within communications and media practice that each participant writes for their own organisation.
