Making communications land - how to leverage the best mediums webinar

 

One of the most fundamental components of change delivery is communication. Whether that's the communications between project teams, to project sponsors or the impacted users, how effective we are as practitioners can have lasting impacts.

Join the Change Management Institute and APM Enabling Change SIG Managers for the second of our three part series on Making Communications Land.

In this session on Monday 4 December, we reviewed how an awareness of your change delivery environment might impact and influence your selection of communication channels and their ultimate effectiveness.

Looking at case studies provided by APM and Change Management Institute practitioners, we will explore the following considerations:

1. The scale, scope and complexity of the project and how that should shape our comms approach
2. How mature the project is and what impact this might have on what you say, to who
3. Cultural nuances and their influence on what communication mechanisms are chosen, when, and why.
