Leading Spokesperson Skills Teams

Communications and Public Relations|3 days|Classroom or live online

This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers speech writing and issues management from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because spokespeople are frequently appointed without ever having been trained, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with press release writing, community engagement and investor communication in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Explain press release writing to someone who does not do the work, measured against established corporate communication practice
  • Review community engagement and say plainly whether it is working
  • Improve investor communication within their own organisation
  • Make a decision about communication auditing without waiting for a specialist
