Hands-on mini-workshops cover press conferences, live interviews and promotion events.
Whole cycle phases of planning, engagement, monitoring and follow-up on performance and results are explored as well as both the theory and practice of the most influential media including internet, social media, TV, news and print media.
Whether the events are part of a planned approach or a preparedness strategy for the unexpected, this course provides the backbone of sound practice and up-to-date knowledge and hence confidence with which to move forward. Various scenarios are explored, for example, how to manage media and official communications in the event of a natural disaster, a human conflict or a tense diplomatic sequence, in addition to the more positive examples of how to approach a monumental state visit, a thawing of relations, methods for seizing significant business opportunities in technologies and ‘high value add’ industries amongst other key developments.
Intercultural Communication Skills
(2 Day General Level Course)
Through empowering and inspiring participants to draw on and learn of other cultural values and patterns of behaviour, the course helps to unravel the mystery providing a clear and transparent framework for respect and communication based on our common humanity and how this is understood, accepted and practiced in various cultures.
So while there are international standards in protocol, there are also highly regarded and advisable practices of respect for cultural differences and diversity that enable diplomatic and business relations to fundamentally reciprocate respect and thence to thrive and strive towards symbiotic initiatives and stronger cooperation.
The course provides a systematic strategy as well as the practical training and learning through experience to enable participants to absorb and use excellent inter-cultural behaviours and models while being attentive to the uniqueness of each culture and its own internal variations and evolution over time. In short, this course provides a springboard to move across cultures in management, business and diplomacy, to be able to lead, mentor and advise others and build firmer trusting relations in the world.
