Narrative Sovereignty: Africa Reclaims Its Global Voice {Business Africa} http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TPmGgQ #NarrativeSovereignty #AfricaRising #EconomicEmpowerment #AfricaReclaims #StrategicCommunication

Wrote about poor decision-making and a sloppy feasibility study for a proposed #SMR in a small Dutch municipality. I was clear it wasn’t anti-nuclear or anti-SMR. Yet some anti-nuclear readers now assume I’m on their side. Typical: the more ideological people are, the harder it seems for them to distinguish substance from process. I had a similar argument about #strategiccommunication and #XR. https://rzondervan.eu/notes032025/ My text from yesterday on SMR is on proces! https://rzondervan.eu/prutsen-in-de-polder-met-een-smr/

New in International Affairs (w Alicia Fjällhed): “Public Diplomacy in the Crossfire: Decoding Ukraine’s ‘Strategic Self’ During Wartime.”

We introduce the Strategic Self — a framework explaining how states communicate under pressure:
🌍 Projecting Self → resilience, values, solidarity
⚔️ Distancing Self → exposing aggression, mobilising outrage

Effectiveness = adaptive balance + narrative restraint.

Avoid these mistakes:
Using jargon. Keep it simple.
Sending the same message to everyone. Customize for each group.

After meetings, note which points got the best response. Use that to improve your next conversation.

Try these tactics:
Use three-point estimates for money decisions. Guess high, middle, and low numbers, then average them.
Frame uncertain choices as experiments. Tell your team Let's try this for 30 days to learn instead of pretending you're certain.

Let’s not invest all our energy and talent in protests that denounce policy while leaving the policymaking to others. Let’s invest some of that energy in making policy instead. Boring local policy. The return on investment might actually be better—though framing it in these terms is probably enough to get me kicked out of the climate movement. https://rzondervan.substack.com/p/notes-32025 #XR #ClimatePolicy #ClimateAction #LocalPolitics #StrategicCommunication
