PolyUX

PolyUX Overview

PolyUX is a practical one day workshop that helps attendees map out their Māori or Pacific stakeholder systems and find leverage points for communications action. Led by facilitator Iulia Leilua, it goes beyond cultural competency training to teach people how to overturn cultural communications barriers.

Māori and Pacific communications in New Zealand require messaging that is culturally relevant, memorable and easily understood. Building cultural competence and sensitivity into your communications can enrich your organisation’s communications and business outcomes. But it means understanding your stakeholders’ world and the forces that shape their opinions and beliefs.

What you'll learn

• Understand the different Māori and Pacific communities that will be engaging with the messaging they create.
• Design a consultation process with Māori and Pacific communities to garner feedback on messaging.
• Create content using Māori and Pacific values and cultural frameworks.
• Ensure that your communications incorporate the expectations of diverse Māori and Pacific communities.

NB: Course participants will need to complete some self directed learning online to gauge their prior experience, strengths and needs as it pertains to the workshop content. This would need to be handed in a week before the workshop.

Who is this workshop for?

Even if you think that your current communications and engagements with your Indigenous stakeholders is sufficient, PolyUX takes our clients deeper and helps them to explore other areas needed for improvement.

The workshop is for people who:

• Want to understand their Màori and Pacific stakeholders better
• Create value in their work and organisation
• Create positive change for Màori and Pacific peoples
• Ensure their communications incorporate the expectations of diverse Māori and Pacific communities.

What you'll gain

It can be confronting when talking about shifting systemic racism, especially among professionals in government, C-Suites, NGOs and faculties. Our goal is to create a more equitable future for Māori and Pacific peoples.

Supporting workplace cultural awareness

Improve the cultural awareness and knowledge of team mates through snackable learning

Improved communication and engagement

Identify and improve communication and engagement barriers with Màori and Pacificing

Māori and Pacific creative services

We offer creatives services which include photography, web design and graphic design so that clients can have access to indigenous designs and assets

I like the interactive elements. Good thought provoking material with practical application so I already feel like this has been useful and I haven't even done the course yet!
