About this webinar

The Persuasive Art of Upward Communication  

As a graduate enrollment leader, you operate at the intersection of data, strategy, and institutional priorities. You bear the responsibility of not only managing operational challenges but also providing regular, actionable insights to university executives who guide broader institutional goals. Regardless of the size or type of your programs, clear, data-informed communication is critical for aligning institutional strategies and fostering decisions that support sustainable GEM practices. Join representatives from NAGAP and Liaison for a timely and exciting panel conversation exploring topics including: 

  • Methods for structuring impactful upward communication to foster strategic alignment.

  • Key data points and narratives that resonate with cabinet-level leaders. 

  • Strategies for bridging communication gaps between enrollment management and executive priorities.

  • Practical examples of successful communication approaches from GEM professionals. 

Together, we’ll explore industry-leading best practices, important emerging trends, and our shared visions for navigating the complexities of communication with campus stakeholders around grad enrollment. Register today!
