Build relationships with media covering new spokesperson training before you need them.
Designing Training Programmes for New Spokespeople on Media Fundamentals
Practical training in new spokesperson training, grounded in real cases and applied to your own operation.
Course Overview
Silence during a crisis involving new spokesperson training is itself a statement. Credibility in the communications and media practice discipline is spent quickly and rebuilt slowly. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of this strand of communications and media practice is examined, not just described. The version of new spokesperson training described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. Mature organisations treat the communications and media practice capability as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The programme works equally well for those formalising the wider communications and media practice agenda for the first time and those improving an existing approach. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about new spokesperson training. Participants leave with a method for the communications and media practice capability, not a set of opinions about it. The final session converts the week's work on the wider communications and media practice agenda into commitments with owners and dates.
