A Frame is Worth a Thousand Words

2018 PSGA Panorama: Intensive Training Option #1
8:30 to 11:45 a.m., Oct. 17, 2018 

In any grant application, the frame is the trigger to defining your issue, explaining who/what is responsible and deciding what would be the best solution. In this session we’ll explore the power and the challenges of value frames; investigate some of the elements the brain uses to frame your message; create messages that flow powerfully from frames. 

Participants will learn:

• Be able to identify strong frames from weak frames
• Create messages that flow directly from their frame
• Know how to reframe when necessary
• Know the differences between episodic and thematic framing and when to use/not use each
• Know how to build a powerful framing narrative
