Business Management for Technical Communication Managers

Thursdays, 6 June to 27 June 2024 | 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM Eastern Time (GMT-4)

Registration closes on 5 June 2024

Effectively managing a technical communication group involves three sets of skills: business management, people management, and project management. This program addresses business management skills 

Effective business management specifically involves establishing a vision for your group, making a business case for proposed projects, and selling the services of your group. This program helps you develop these skills. 

 This certificate program develops these skills through a combination of discovery exercises (which leverage your existing knowledge), formal presentations (which describe the “must knows”) and action planning segments, which give you a chance to consider how you’ll apply what you learned back on the job.

 

Learning objectives and takeaways:

  • Develop a strategic plan for your group
  • Prepare a business case for proposed projects
  • Market services to skeptical internal “customers” (or sponsors)

Sessions:

Week 1: Strategic planning: Developing a vision for your group

Week 2: Building a business case: Part 1

Week 3: Building a business case: Part 2

Week 4:  Promoting your Technical Communication Group
