Hear tips and techniques you and your team members can use to quickly create content for communication activities that are easy for audiences to understand and that generate the response you want.

During the time together Jo Ann Sweeney  (LinkedIn profile @commsabilities) shares the structure professional journalists use to structure content; it is a simple structure that ensures content creators stay focused both on their audiences and on business objectives, that key messages come through clearly.

Firstly we practice using a précis to structure the written words for emails, articles, speeches, presentations and websites.

Then Jo Ann uses storyboarding to create an outline and script for a video or podcast and an information pack that gives key stakeholders detailed background about your programme that they can keep for reference.

Next Jo Ann looks at golden rules for creating content that is well written and structured so your audiences understand what you mean the first time they read or listen to your words.

Finally we cover how to speed up the content clearance process so people know what is expected of them and give you their comments and changes quickly.

Jo Ann will be sharing the templates she uses for:

  • Storyboarding videos and audio podcasts
  • Structuring news stories and feature articles
  • Creating an information pack
  • Persuading executives to quickly clear content.

This webinar is for:

  • Executives who want their teams to be proficient in content creation best practices
  • Transformation leaders who want collateral their stakeholders trust and read, watch and listen to
  • Change management practitioners who to produce clear, engaging content for their audiences.

  1. Are your projects plagued by problems such as unresponsive business stakeholders, unclear expectations, pointing fingers, missed deadlines?
  2. Do project critical business decisions seem to take forever?

These common issues can cause high stress and frustration, repeated mistakes, wasted time, and rework.

  • Do your stakeholders then wonder why “IT didn’t get it right”?

Business stakeholders sometimes see IT work as the “black box,” the unknown. Coupled with their own work demands, there can be a tendency to hang back and think “IT will make it happen.”

In this webinar, we will cover ways to increase the level of business engagement and ownership on your projects.

Key Webinar Objectives:

  • Learn how to proactively design more successful outcomes while building credibility and enhancing relationships with your business community.
  • Gain tips on how to educate them about working with IT teams in partnership to create a more positive overall project experience.

The What, Why, & How Of DevSecOps

Share

Live Webinar February 10th, 2022 – 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm EST
Activity Type: Education – Course or Training  1 Hour  1 PDU free
Provider: CPrime (ATP)

DevSecOps is a recent offshoot of the DevOps movement, which doubles down on the importance of security.

As security continues to be downplayed or ignored even as the threat landscape explodes, DevSecOps promotes a set of well-developed design principles and engineering patterns which involve security owners and product designers much earlier.

DevSecOps lays out a robust and practical blueprint for building security features into the design process, leveraging new engineering tools and patterns and creating a secure, defensible software right from the start.

Join Chris Knotts, PMP – (LinkedIn profile), Innovation Product Director at Cprime to:

  • Learn how the concept of “shifting left” applies to application security and how to prioritize security requirements earlier in the design process
  • Get an introduction to a few of the most effective engineering tools for implementing DevSecOps, including popular code scanners, dependency checkers, and free open-source products
  • Understand how progress with DevSecOps depends on roles and stakeholders outside of just security staff
