Being visible isn’t the same as being positioned, missteps in tone, audience, or timing erode trust quickly.
The situation this course is for
You're operating at the intersection of innovation and public attention, where one misaligned message can dilute credibility. The pressure to speak often competes with the need to speak wisely. Without a clear positioning strategy, even strong expertise gets lost in noise or misinterpreted by the wrong audiences. The cost? Lost influence, missed opportunities, and wasted effort.
Who this is for
A strategic communicator in emerging tech or AI, driving media presence for companies or themselves, focused on impact, not just exposure.
Who this is not for
This is not for those seeking viral fame, social media growth hacks, or generic PR templates. It’s not for influencers building personal brands through volume.
What you walk away with
- Build a clear, defensible positioning framework aligned with technical credibility
- Identify and prioritize audience tiers based on influence and relevance
- Craft messaging that resonates without oversimplifying complex ideas
