What Sports Team Communicators Can Teach Us, presented by PRSA-NCC Professional Development Committee: If sports are a metaphor for life, sports communication is a metaphor for the rest of PR.
On Tuesday, February 14, the National Capital Chapter of PRSA (PRSA-NCC) will host a workshop at the U.S. Navy Memorial & Heritage Center in Washington , DC from 8-10 a.m.
In this workshop, sports team professionals from the Baltimore Ravens, Washington Nationals, Georgetown Hoyas, and Washington Capitals will provide valuable lessons from their years of experience working in sports communications.
Topics for the workshop will include message discipline in the digital age; lessons about crisis communications from the sports world; integrating social and traditional media and being your own news source; internal communications and selling your plan to your company or client; and how an underdog or small played breaks into the news cycle.
