Pitch Perfect: Communicating with Traditional and Social Media for Scholars, Researchers, and Academic LeadersAcademic leaders, scholars and researchers who want to communicate their institution's information and ideas to a wider public will find practical advice on how to do so in this new book by William Tyson.
Tyson, who has been successfully advising scholars and academic leaders on media relations for more than 30 years, explains how to undertake early and thoughtful communications planning, how to understand the needs and workings of traditional and digital media and how to tell your story in a way that will capture your audience.
Whether you are working on research that has public implications or want to address funders' requests for communications plans to promote the programs they are supporting, this book offers strategic advice on getting yourself heard in today's 24-hour news cycle and on getting your message across in an environment where blogs and Twitter vie with traditional media.
The book includes lists of key media in North America, Australia and the U.K.
