An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Communication Manager
Managing Internal and External Communication to Win Stakeholders Over
INTRODUCTION
The Communication Manager Training Course is designed to equip communication professionals with the practical capabilities required to plan, manage, and evaluate communication across the organisation. In today’s environment, communication is not just about sharing information, but about making sure the right messages reach the right people in a way that is clear, consistent, and meaningful.
This programme focuses on how communication works in practice. It looks at how to understand what different stakeholders need, how to shape messages that make sense to them, and how to ensure communication activities support wider organisational priorities. Participants explore how to move from ideas and plans into communication that people actually notice, understand, and respond to.
Across the five days, the course follows a natural flow from understanding communication needs, through planning and delivery, to managing communication during change and more challenging situations. It also looks at how to keep communication consistent when multiple teams are involved, and how to maintain clarity even when things are moving quickly.
Participants will leave with a clearer, more structured way of thinking about communication, along with practical tools they can use immediately in their roles.
