Speech Writing: Tools and Techniques

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

This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through message development and investor communication on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: internal communication failures surface later as engagement and retention problems, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with issues management, internal communication and social media strategy in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Bring issues management into line with current good practice, measured against stakeholder mapping methodology
Explain internal communication to someone who does not do the work
Put social media strategy on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
Spot where crisis communication is failing before it becomes a finding
