The Office of Personnel Management has scheduled a workshop
for Feb 16 – Feb 20 for managers and executives who need
to be prepared to represent their agencies to the media,
other agencies, stakeholder groups, the public, or
Congress.
Given at the Western Management Development Center in
Denver, “Executive Communications Workshop, Representing
Your Agency to External Audiences,” is designed to improve
the ability to communicate an agency’s message plainly
and concisely, as well as dealing with the media and
writing clearly for people outside of one’s organization.
Participants will practice communicating in a variety of
settings such as a news conference, briefing, public
hearing and Congressional hearing and will work on refining
their message, improving their presentation style, and
revising and editing written documents from their own
agencies. The $3,900 fee includes meals, lodging, tuition
and course materials. Learn more and register at http://www.leadership.opm.gov/content.cfm?CAT=ECW-LPC
