About the workshop:

Crafting a Communications Strategy to improve your non-profit story-telling...with a side-trip into ethical communications

A one-day workshop for non-profit groups' staff, board members and volunteers. We will focus on low-budget, big impact solutions.

This one-day workshop will cover:

  *   Communications strategy as a key element of your organization's health
  *   Organizational objectives and Communications objectives (they are different!)
  *   Identifying stakeholders - their needs and their influence
  *   Developing core messages & getting to the heart of your story
  *   Determining key communications methods & tools (with a look at low-cost solutions)
  *   Ethical storytelling
  *   Social media plan


Participants will leave the workshop with knowledge of the fundamentals of creating a communications plan, plus practical ideas & tools for managing your organization's communications outreach.

This professional development opportunity will be interactive and enjoyable - participants will have the chance to discuss their organizations, and get ideas on communications solutions.

Here are some testimonials from previous workshops by Sean Kelly:

"Engaging, lots of content, interactive, lots of examples - a great workshop."

"This was so, so valuable!"

"Honest and straightforward info - I would recommend this workshop to anyone."

"It was fun, which always enhances learning."
