Description:People need data more than ever nowadays. But with so much going on, they have even less bandwidth to absorb what we give them. The solution? Sticky messaging!
The evaluation profession (and others) have wholeheartedly embraced smaller and more innovative forms of reporting over the years such as infographics, two-page reports, slidedocs, and story maps. However, these briefer forms of communication require us to condense our extensive findings into much shorter content. Evaluators and other professionals also need to identify and make their key messages “sticky” in order to reduce the noise and ensure that busy decision-makers are able to understand, recall, and act on our key findings when the time comes.
Join us for a fun and interactive webinar looking at what makes a message “sticky” and leave feeling inspired to try something new!
