Strategic Communications

The narrative, the positioning and the speed to respond.

Overview

What this practice does

A leader is defined by the story people tell about them. CAPR builds that story, equips the leader and the organisation to tell it consistently across every channel, and responds within hours when the opposition or events challenge it.

Typical clients
  • Leaders building or repairing a public image
  • Campaigns needing a unified voice across channels
  • Party units and leadership offices with daily media exposure

How we work

The sequence of a communication engagement

  1. Listen

    Perception research, social listening and media analysis establish how the leader is actually seen.

  2. Define

    Narrative, message architecture, tone and visual identity, agreed with the leader.

  3. Produce

    Content and creative in the languages and formats the constituency actually consumes.

  4. Respond

    Daily monitoring and rapid response keep the narrative on course.
