What is it Like? If you do not have previous communication experience, but have found yourself a manager of communications staff, or if you are looking at moving into a management role in the communications area, Massey’s Master of Management (Communication) will give you the in-depth knowledge and skills you need. Communication management is about understanding and strategically managing all communication channels within an organisation. This is a constantly growing area, with social media, web, text, chat and apps giving increasing numbers of ways to communicate to both an external and internal audience.
