Level 3 | ICC Capital Suite 10-12

All the projects have at least a website. Most of the projects try to have some kind of Social Media presence. However, let's face the hard truth - Comms for a project is hard, and we can run into various pitfalls, and it is a lot of ground to cover.

Let's discover what channels and processes you can employ in a project to ensure good communications.
We start with the identification of target groups for comms. What channels to use and will end in drafting social media policies and guidelines for the contributors when they are publishing comms in the name of a project.
Also, have you ever thought of critical comms for a project - how do you handle comms if something critical is happening?
After the session, you have ideas for your project to move towards a more consistent and reliable communication.
