Speech Writing for Small and Medium Enterprises

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

Speech Writing for Small and Medium Enterprises takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including media relations, interview technique and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because internal communication failures surface later as engagement and retention problems, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with spokesperson training, issues management and investor communication in their own organisation.

Bring spokesperson training into line with current good practice, measured against established corporate communication practice
Explain issues management to someone who does not do the work
Make a decision about investor communication without waiting for a specialist
Spot where content planning is failing before it becomes a finding
