CORPORATE ENERGY ONLINE

An integrated approach to virtual communication excellence…

Why do you need it?

The world of work has dramatically changed for many of us and the shift to remote working has profoundly affected communication within organisations as well as across teams. While we are slowly getting more comfortable running online meetings and events very few people are finding this a natural skill or competency; often feeling self-conscious or unsure of how to make the best impact. Many of us have found the huge increase in time spent online has led to disengagement, fatigue and a difficulty sustaining attention on the topic.

Online corporate communication is all too often dominated by long slide decks and uninspiring, dull messages. This shouldn’t be surprising as the specific skills and knowledge needed to engage people online or create dynamic conversations are relatively new to us. When you then include the challenges of mastering new technology, the task becomes even harder!

How will it help you?

Corporate Energy Online is a programme that helps you creatively design communication specifically for online environments and to speak in a way that engages your audiences. This enables you to communicate important corporate messages in a more impactful manner than before. The exciting part is that by making the small changes shared in this programme, you will quickly and easily set yourself apart from others. Simply structuring your communication differently, adjusting your use of the technology and being creative in your approach, transforms your audience’s experience.

WHO IS IT FOR?

Corporate Energy Online is designed for professionals who find themselves communicating regularly in an online or virtual environment and need to ensure they have a positive impact on their teams, hold attention and easily motivate action. Typically, participants are middle managers, senior managers, subject matter experts or project leaders. As the programme is online, it is available to anyone who would like to join, anywhere in the world.
