Our first training seminar on core public affairs skills will focus on laying the foundations of a successful strategy. Join this seminar to learn more about how to conduct an assessment of your internal and external landscape, how to identify key issues and priorities, and how to translate them into concrete objectives and KPIs that will guide implementation.
Featured Topic & Speaker
In the first of four training seminars focusing on core public affairs skills, we will explore the mindset and foundational steps needed to set up a successful public affairs strategy that works for you and your organization.
Sessions will be very practical and hands-on – making sure you understand how you can apply this to your work/situation. Through case studies and practical exercises this training seminar will provide participants with:
- A simple and effective methodology to prioritise work and set objectives so you can engage successfully in the European Union
- The foundations of a public affairs strategy that works for you and whose success you can measure and share internally
- Tools to assess your internal environment, regulatory landscape and external reputation – to help you make key strategic choices
- The means to identify your key issues and priorities, and translate them into concrete objectives and KPIs
- An understanding of what influence is (and what it is not), and how your strategy empowers you to harness it
