Reaching Multicultural Audiences
Reaching Multicultural Audiences
Are you successfully reaching out to multicultural audiences? Communicating with diverse groups is about more than just adding a timely message a few times a year; it's about connecting with the communities you serve to create positive long-term relationships. This session will cover tips on what to do and what to avoid when communicating across cultures:
- The importance of identifying the audiences you want to target,
- The importance of identifying stakeholders and ambassadors for message buy-in, and
- Key insights on creating campaigns for diverse audiences
This event is presented in conjunction with the PRSA St. Louis chapter and our fellow chapters throughout the Midwest District.
