COMMUNICATION AS AN INTEGRATION ELEMENT (of both structures and professionals)
Sapienza University is a wide and complex organization.
Communication usually involves many different actors, very often not necessarily professionals.Sapienza has chosen to involve all the structures in the process. Thus the Communication plan also assumed the role of a connecting element.

IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS
It’s of paramount importance to ensure accordance between communication goals and strategic objectives.
