Mandate of External Comms Role
decision making
frequency of communication on all channels
aim to have posts at least 2 days apart
aim to have newsletters sent out at least 1 month apart
what is posted on our channels (website, newsletter, social media) using the following considerations:
where?
if it's a resource include it in the website resource section
if it's not ours and not a resource post it on social media
if it's ours: website, newsletter, facebook
what?
is it amplifying the voice of something with a marginalised experience?
if it isn't, consider what recent posts have been about & aim for variety. If it's not timely, you could choose to wait
does it support others to be the change we wanna see?

Purpose of external communication
provide an access point for groups to our work and related resources, to support them to be the change
communicate & amplify our values
support our visibility and therewith our access to resources
Sign off process
this is for when you want to advertise an offering OR you want to create or update general materials
purpose:
ensuring that Navigate’s communication is consistent and representative
what are 'general materials'?
handouts, blog posts, etc. that are unspecific to a workshop or work you're doing
example:
a Conflict Handbook is general, a slide set for the workshop we’re doing on conflict for XR is not (but a more general slide set for a ‘standard’ conflict workshop is general)
the process
Step 1:
communicate what you’re working on to External Comms so they can ensure no duplication of work is happening and track what may be ready to be published when (and therefore included in a newsletter, for example)
Step 2:
write the thing, consider our style guide for layout etc.
Step 3
: get feedback using the following considerations
if you have created something
NEW
, ask at least 1 person to read through it and give feedback and integrate this as best as possible.
if you’re
UPDATING
something, use your own discernment to determine whether getting feedback in would be a good use of capacity
what to ask for
differentiate between ‘nice to have’ (I have a preference for it to be this way I’m suggesting, and I’m also ok with it being how it it), ‘I’d prefer this to change’ (I have a strong preference for this changing, and can let go of this if the situation calls for it) and ‘this must change’ (I believe that publishing it in this way would cause us or someone else harm/is out of alignment with values).
Step 4:
integrate feedback
integrate as best as possible, stay true to your own voice and what you’re wanting to say, and dialogue if feedback is unclear or controversial (esp for ‘this must change’ and ‘I’d prefer this to change’ feedback).
Step 5
: when you have integrated concerns and upgrades as best as possible, inform External Comms of the location of your work and any considerations around publishing it that you see (e.g. timings)
