Leading Strategic Communication

A practical programme in leading strategic communication, connecting working concepts with team decisions and relevant workplace examples.

About the Course

This programme develops a working approach to leading strategic communication in the context of messages, relationships and collaborative decisions. Participants move from understanding the main concepts to examining a case, testing alternatives and explaining a practical recommendation. The three modules focus on communication objectives, leadership alignment and evaluation. Examples are selected after the training brief so that they reflect the responsibilities and experience of the participant group.

Course Objectives

  • Explain the role of communication objectives and identify the information required for a reliable assessment.
  • Use a structured worksheet to examine leadership alignment and compare reasonable alternatives.
  • Identify assumptions, missing evidence and implementation concerns related to evaluation.
  • Prepare a communication brief, role-play and feedback record for discussion with a professional team.
  • Translate the exercise into a workplace action plan with owners, review points and measurable progress.

Who Can Benefit

  • Professionals with stakeholder-facing responsibilities: apply communication objectives to their responsibilities through a guided case and a course-specific worksheet.
  • Team leaders and client-facing staff: apply leadership alignment to their responsibilities through a guided case and a course-specific worksheet.
  • Communication and coordination teams: apply evaluation to their responsibilities through a guided case and a course-specific worksheet.
