Creating messages that move customers and consumers to take action is one of many challenges facing marketers in today’s ever-evolving landscape. These leaders need the ability to think strategically about their marketing communications – are they as effective as they could be? This program will help reframe how to evaluate creative strategy and output by bridging the fundamentals of strategic marketing communications — insight, positioning and creative brief work — with new tactical approaches across the communication spectrum.
You’ll learn to ask the right questions – from strategic planning to tactical execution of your marketing communications plan – and explore frameworks and examples for building and executing marketing communications strategically in today’s digital age. You’ll also develop a communications strategy, or creative brief, for a professional or personal marketing communications challenge of your choosing and receive feedback on your brief from faculty and peers. After this program, you’ll never look at marketing communications the same way again.
This program is offered in a live virtual format. Our live virtual programs are built to deliver a rich experience that’s comparable to our in-person programs. You will have the opportunity to engage with our faculty and your peers in live discussions and lecture sessions. You will come away with the tools to navigate and succeed in the new business landscape.
