October 17, 2023 - Advocacy Toolbox Training

In this session, you’ll learn how to use Program Theory
to strategize how you can remove the barriers that government creates.

You’ll also learn Effective Citizen Activism (IEM Model). This is the crux
of a grassroots movement. Without understanding the basics of identifying
potential followers, realizing the importance of educating them and yourself,
and knowing how to mobilize them to act, there is no long- term movement.

 

October 24, 2023 – How to use Effective Messaging
& Tell Your Story

In this session you will learn how to tactically leverage
storytelling to motivate and spark interest in others and inspire change.

 

You’ll also learn the three key components of messaging:
what you’re saying, how you’re saying it, and why it matters. In this session,
you will not only learn how to effectively communicate a winning message for
your goals, but also how to counter your opponent’s messaging—because no matter
what industry you’re in, there will be someone else trying to sell ideas
similar or completely different from yours.
