Beyond the PDF
This is a short course about changing the reporting status quo.
The fact is, most organizations are still reporting like it’s 1999. The status quo strategy (PDFs & resource libraries) does not properly account for social media, smart phones, better software, or the experiences and expectations of a modern audience. This short course is built to deliver the following takeaways:
- The critical importance of differentiating technical reports and communication vehicles.
- The need to stop “report multitasking” and build an effective reporting process.
- Learn a simple but effective modern dissemination strategy that is easy to implement
