Objectives and Topics
MASTER COMMUNICATION
& MARKETING
the creation of new managers who are able to understand the market, predict changes, identify a product’s resources, with the know-how to interpret the culture and language required to transmit and manage integrated communication is the quest of this course. Indeed, the most advanced managerial skills are found inside businesses of high added value within the Italian fashion system and design sectors. today, therefore, it is necessary to train for Strategic and Creative Marketing and relative managerial tools and techniques.
developing company organisation charts, understanding roles and skills; evaluating budget plans starting from internal resources of a company within a business plan are some of the operational abilities that are in continuous progress keeping abreast of the changing market demands.
In order to generate value, this type of management must make sure that all areas operate harmoniously and with a common objective; its skill base is continually activated along the entire process, along the whole chain: from internal communication to external communication in constant connection with the mission of the brand and with respect to the vision it transmits to clients. Another of its features is communication and control between internal professional profiles. Techniques and tools work in parallel to identify the consumer, define the product, elaborate diffusion and sales strategies, establish briefs for market research specialists, agencies for brand advertising, sales points for services to the product and these demand knowledge of all internal and external components of the business process.
