Today’s internal comms leaders shape culture, steer decisions and turn ambiguity into action. Join a senior employee communications leader in this compelling fireside as they unpack how the function can earn respect from executives, and what the next few years demand from teams and talent.

  • Earning (and Keeping) C-suite Trust: How to tie business priorities to P&L realities, develop a strategy to share counterfactuals (“what if we don’t”), and deliver outcomes leaders can cite.
  • Managing Up During Uncertainty: How to coach leadership for tone and stance in half-known situations, set decision thresholds, and create update cadences that reduce rumors.
  • Why Building Trust Is Critical: Learn how to be in the room early to shape decisions and secure resources, and how you can build on c-suite trust to create employee trust in them.
  • New Skills You Need: It’s not just AI, it’s Human Intelligence. Learn how to balance bots with briefs, and the soft skills you need to cultivate on your team.
