The communications plan addresses your goals and objectives related to communications, intended audiences, key messages, distribution channels and a plan of action for delivering messages to intended audiences through selected channels.\nCommunications planning helps ensure that key messages reach intended audiences. Communications activities help raise awareness, educate and/or train stakeholders, and allow for feedback. These strategies ultimately help facilitate the intended change.\nInstructions\nReview and modify the template to suit your needs.\nDraft the communications plan based on your identified stakeholders and communication approaches.\nShare the plan for review and feedback and refine as needed.\nTrack communication activities, evaluate communication efforts, and refine communications messages and activities as needed.\nHelpful hints\nRefer to your Stakeholder Analysis (or complete a Stakeholder Analysis) to consider audiences for your communication activities.\nDiscuss the communications questions in the Migration Planning Questionnaire as a team to inform development of the communications plan.\nUse the Change Management Workbook to map out communication activities, if the communications strategies required are more formal or structured.\nWhile this communication plan template is designed around an IIS platform migration project, it can be modified for application to other projects/initiatives.\nBolded text (as used above) indicates that the resource referenced is available elsewhere in the IIS Migration Toolkit.\nBoxes marked “note to author” (indicated with a lightbulb icon) are intended to serve as guidance and offer prompts as you populate the template, and should be deleted before the document is finalized.\u000f\n\u003CJurisdiction> IIS Migration
