French to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Advertising / Public Relations / PR/media relations | | French term or phrase: communication de socle | | This is the title of a section in a document issued internally by an auto manufacturer in France, urging new communications actions, in relation to the press and the community at large. I'm afraid the phrase doesn't appear again in the document. I'm guessing something like speaking from the podium, to the press and others. Any more precise phrases out there? |

15 mins confidence:   peer agreement (net): +2 Speaking up / You're the voice
Explanation:
As this is the title of a section, I would be inclined to be free with it. My first thought was "Speaking out", but that seems to imply some sort of injustice. So how about "Speaking up" or even "You're the voice" (remember that bloody awful song?). This should get the message across.
(Sorry for the double posting - I pressed "Send" accidentally before I was finished)
