Seminar: External Communication Politics [ LCOMU2616 ]

The course LCOMU2310 strategic Communications of organizations and COMU 2615 External Communication Politics constitutes a prerequisite.

The seminar, based on external communication politics courses, proposes to carry out the analysis of a corporate communication policy of an organization. The analysed organisations will come from a range of sectors (culture, humanitarian work, sport, the media and the economy). The course aims to understand the methodologies to be implemented to define a corporate communication strategy. From an audit until the production of a strategic plan and the design of communications tools, the course covers the various stages of the implementation of a corporate communications plan.

By the end of the seminar, students will be able to:
(1) Produce an organizational image diagnosis and identify organisational issues and factors in terms of communication
(2) Define a corporate strategy linked to corporate objectives and the result of the diagnostic
(3) Produce a strategic communications plan identifying: operational objectives, target populations, the target messages, anticipated outcomes and evaluations, etc.
