Strategies for Communicating Your Organization’s Impact [October 24, 2023]

In this webinar, attendees learned effective practices for how to communicate their organization’s impact to 5 key stakeholder groups, each of which requires a different strategy: (1) Organizational Leadership, (2) Policymakers, (3) Practitioners, (4) Researchers, and (5) the General Community.

Publication Academy, Inc. introduced their custom online curricula that has been used to train HRA member Templeton World Charity Foundation (TWCF) staff and grantees in evidence-based practices to effectively communicate with these five stakeholder groups. At TWCF, implementation of these practices resulted in in an increased dissemination speed and an increase in the number of publications produced. Webinar registrants received structured toolkits for how best to communicate the findings of their organization’s initiatives to policymakers and practitioners (these toolkits are also linked above).
