FleishmanHillard Authenticity Workshops

1. FleishmanHillard Authenticity Workshops What Are Authenticity Workshops? A series of intensive workshops where an organization’s executive leadership works hand-in-hand with FleishmanHillard’s global industry and practice leaders to map the strategy, messages and program to align brand and reputation in a way that creates more productive engagement with stakeholders. What Happens During The Workshops? Workshops are much more than just a single day event. The team is hard at work before, during and after the session to develop a strategic plan that achieves your business goals. The workshop is based on FleishmanHillard’s proprietary COMPASS model that guides an organization through the entire planning process, from conceptualization to execution. When Do I Conduct A Workshop? • The Authenticity Workshops lay the foundation for any initiative where an organization is looking to advance its business goals through more a productive engagement with its audiences. • Workshops should be paired with the Authenticity Gap research to ensure a company is getting the most from its investment in the research. The research provides rich insights and direction. Once you have the results in hand, it’s critical to determine what actions to take as a result and how to shape your marketing communication plans going forward. • An abbreviated version of the workshops can also be done for companies that haven’t conducted the Authenticity Gap research. Though not informed by important insights from outside stakeholders, these sessions rely on secondary sources and internal interviews for information and use the Nine Drivers as a framework for discussion.
