In-Person Sessions

We’ve all been there, that dreaded board meeting where parents speak out against what they believe is an affront to their values or disruptive to their child’s education. National polls tell us public education is a top issue leading up to the midterm elections. How can we anticipate activism and still engage our community productively? Learn best practices to anticipate and manage issues, diffuse and redirect angry publics, and maintain public understanding and support with research, common messaging and active listening. Leave this session with an effective communication plan, prepared for your next encounter with the toughest critics.
