Turning reputation risks into positives with grace and humour

In local government, we’re often at the front line of negative issues.
Usually, you have to play it with a straight bat – but there are also times when humour and creativity can help to soften a difficult message.

Join us for the next complimentary webinar of the Local Government Communication Professionals Network when we’ll look at some best practice ways to respond to negative issues without sounding defensive.

You’ll take away:

  • New ideas for responding when your Council is on the receiving end of negative comment
  • How to own up to a Council mistake without further damaging the organisation’s reputation
  • The power of authenticity and openness – and why your Council needs to give
    defensiveness the boot

Join us on Tuesday 21 March at 2pm AEDT (please note it’s daylight saving time)
