The communications strategy: an essential tool for achieving your objectives
Every successful campaign or initiative starts with a good strategy. Many organizations know that they need a certain number of communications tools to move a major project forward or tackle an issue. However, before beginning the production of any tactic, it's important to be clear about your objectives, your audiences, what you want to say and what success looks like. This hands-on workshop will take you through the main elements of a communications strategy to bring your projects to fruition.

The message map: a tool for raising awareness and building credibility
The message map was developed by American Vincent Covello as a memory aid when speaking-out in emergency or high-stress situations. In the communications world, we quickly realized the effectiveness of this tool in any situation where there is reputational risk (e.g. dismissals, budget cuts, layoffs, scandals). This workshop presents the message map in detail, enabling participants to take ownership of it and use it with confidence.

The elevator pitch or strategic interview: communicating to influence
Whether it's political lobbying or a request for funding, leaders need to be able to explain their organization's particular context to people who don't necessarily have an understanding of their reality. What's more, the time available to them is often limited. That's why it's essential to be able to identify your organization and its priorities succinctly and effectively. The practical elevator pitch training course meets this need, enabling you to position your organization in any situation and communicate effectively.
