Strategic Communication

Introduction

Should we rather invest in Clubhouse, chatbots or a virtual event? Is it more important to build reputation with politicians, increase share of voice in the media or foster employee engagement? Are these activities – and is communication in general – really important for the overall success of the organisation?

The basic concept in this course is strategic communication. Strategic communication encompasses all communication that is substantial for the survival and sustained success of an organisation, a brand, a person or a function. Managing communication ensures that communication is used purposefully to engage in conversations of strategic or operational significance to organisational goals. This means: it’s all about the impact on value creation, not only about the success of corporate communications in the media or among stakeholders.

This masterclass will provide conceptual and practical solutions to position yourself and your communication team in a new way. It builds on the latest insights from international research and lessons learned from thought leaders in the field. Combining knowledge from corporate communications and strategic management helps you to understand and explain communications in the language of executives.

Who should attend

The masterclass is designed for experienced professionals in the field of corporate communication, public affairs, general management, and consultancy.

This executive-level masterclass offers professionals a highly flexible learning experience that fosters leadership, strategic thinking and corporate responsibility.
