This 2.5 hour intensive masterclass is designed for participants to build on the learnings from the  Neuroscience: The Science Behind Effective Employee Engagement & Change masterclass, but can also be attended as a standalone session. 

It focuses on how we as communicators can hold the attention of our audiences. This is particularly relevant within our fast-moving environments where increasing distraction, coupled with a rapidly reducing capacity for change, demands communication that speaks to our human emotion, hopes and fears.

This one-day virtual learning programme, delivered via live online sessions and interactive activities, will explore the purpose of a diverse and inclusive workplace with respect to the role of communication and engagement professionals. You will learn how to build empathy with the topic of diversity and inclusion amongst employees, how communication can support an inclusive culture and practical tools to help day-to-day engagement with diverse audiences.

This two-part virtual learning programme takes an in-depth look at the principles and practice of good practice communication planning in the context of organisational change, equipping participants with a robust process. This course will equip you with the skills and knowledge required to successfully plan your internal communications and give you the opportunity to put your learning into practice.

This virtual training course lead by Jo Hall will expand on the knowledge, tips and best practice shared in her Making internal communication measurement easy webinar It will equip internal communicators with the confidence to know what to measure and how to measure it, how to make good data-driven decisions and recommendations, as well as discover ways in which they can use relevant data to demonstrate the positive impact and value that internal communication adds to their organisation. Reaching beyond the basics, this course on effective measurement and evaluation will be interactive and practical to truly boost your measurement capability and credibility.

Delivered via interactive online sessions, group discussions and individual workplace exercises, The Power of Storytelling is a virtual learning programme for communication professionals on the science and art of storytelling and why stories work.

As Richard Branson says: “Clients do not come first. Employees come first. If you take care of your employees, they will take care of the clients.” Despite the popularity of this quote, whereas organisations spend big budgets chasing new leads and keeping current customers satisfied, few spend as much time and money on the people who truly make the organisation succeed or fail: the employees.

As internal communicators, the way we write has the power to inform, influence and inspire. Whether it’s writing for the intranet or being called upon to coach and advise colleagues to create their own content. That all requires skill. Skill to spot a story. Skill to structure content in the right way. Skill to bring content to life. Skill to adapt your writing style for different channels or audiences. Skill to edit with confidence. Skill to proof with precision. This workshop provides you with the knowledge and skills to write with confidence for a variety of audiences and channels.

This virtual learning course - delivered over two interactive half day sessions - will challenge several myths about organisational culture, cultural diversity and culture change and equip delegates with powerful, practical knowledge and tools to help them put communication and themselves in the driving seat of culture management.

Change is one of the few guarantees in life and therefore also in business. Never has this been more accurate than at the present time.

While organisations face change to adjust to internal or external forces, people often resist the sense of uncertainty and fear loss of control. Communicating change effectively, the reason behind it, the goals and the benefits, is critical to the success of any change initiative.         

This virtual masterclass will run as two half day sessions on consecutive weeks with the opportunity for practical application, feedback and reflection. It is designed to introduce communication practitioners to the principles of neuroscience explaining how the brain operates and what helps and hinders successful engagement during change.

Delegates also have the option to attend a follow-up session to further their knowledge, Communication that Speaks to Emotion.
