This one day course is a unique product of the IAP2 International organisation. It was developed with trainers from around the world to help decision makers give strategic direction to public engagement.
We will spend a day in your workplace training your people who make the decisions that impact the public. This might include project managers, line managers, other leaders. We will work through why ignoring the public, refuting what they say or limiting their participation are not typically the best options to take. In current times, especially with the fast transfer of information via social media, lack of responsiveness will reflect on your reputation as being socially responsible. Everyone loses when communication breaks down.
