Who do our museums need to communicate with? And what are the best ways to reach them? This course will begin by exploring who our stakeholders might be before moving on to think about the most effective means of communicating with them. Areas covered will include media and PR, case studies and reports and social media. We’ll look at examples of good practice and try our hand at writing some persuasive text with a specific audience in mind.
By the end of the course, participants will:
- Have identified the key stakeholders for their organisation
- Considered the pros and cons of different communication channels
- Feel more confident about writing for a range of different audiences, both on and off line.
This session is being run by Esther Morgan, Communications Manager at Norfolk Museums Service
