Anybody out there? Effective Corporate Affairs

This day-long course, from the Association of Healthcare Communicators, is aimed at marketing and communications managers, press managers and heads of communication and media departments.

The course will cover:

• Identifying your stakeholders – who do you need to be talking to and why
• Local and regional government – how it works and who’s important
• Developing a corporate affairs policy
• Influencing skills – how to influence decision makers in local government, social services, education and other key areas
