1 Know your audience

Before you craft your message, you need to understand your audience. Who are they? What are their needs, interests, expectations, and challenges? How do they prefer to receive information? What language and tone do they respond to? Knowing your audience will help you tailor your communication to their context, relevance, and value.

This step is so important, because it tells leadership you are focused on the same goals that they are focused on - and you would like to provide solutions. Good leaders don’t care about your title, they care that you understand the issues most important to them and you are coming up with answers.

Within your institution, you will need to craft your message several times to share it with different groups of stakeholders: 1) Your C-suite/peers 2) Your peers 3) Your staff/department 4) Students - if applicable It's important to first understand what truly appeals to each of these groups and how your message aligns with what they are interested in/their goals. How do your goals help them meet their goals?

2 Define your purpose

What is the purpose of your communication? Is it to inform, inspire, persuade, or motivate? Is it to share your vision and goals, solicit feedback, or invite participation? Define your purpose clearly and concisely, and make sure it aligns with your audience's needs and interests. Your purpose will guide your content, structure, and tone of your communication.

In defining your purpose, it's important to refer back to your goals for your role. That will drive the lens with which you communicate to each group of stakeholders, as well as solicit support for your goals as one positive 'side effect.'

3 Use multiple channels

Depending on your purpose and audience, you may need to use different channels to communicate your vision and goals. For example, you may use a formal speech, a newsletter, a website, a social media post, or a video to reach different segments of your academic community. You may also need to repeat your message across multiple channels and occasions to reinforce your message and increase its visibility and impact.

It is important to consistently communicate your vision and goals, as it takes multiple times for a message to truly be received or digested fully. You can combine in-person, online forums, and written mediums on your campus to reach your desired groups of stakeholders.

4 Be clear and consistent

Your communication should be clear and consistent across all channels and occasions. Use simple and direct language, avoid jargon and acronyms, and explain any technical terms or concepts. Use examples, stories, or data to illustrate your points and show how your vision and goals are relevant and realistic. Be consistent in your message, tone, and style, and avoid contradicting or confusing your audience.

5 Invite feedback and dialogue

Communication is not a one-way process. You need to invite feedback and dialogue from your audience to gauge their understanding, interest, and support for your vision and goals. You also need to listen to their questions, concerns, suggestions, and criticisms, and address them respectfully and constructively. Feedback and dialogue will help you build trust, rapport, and collaboration with your audience, and also help you refine and improve your vision and goals.

6 Show appreciation and recognition

Finally, you need to show appreciation and recognition to your audience for their attention, participation, and contribution to your vision and goals. Thank them for their time, feedback, and support, and acknowledge their achievements and efforts. Show them how their input and actions have made a difference and how they are valued and respected. Appreciation and recognition will help you foster a positive and supportive academic culture and environment.
