CIPR internal comms conference – now open for bookings
In just over a month – on Monday 29 September 2008 – the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) will be hosting its annual internal communication conference in central London.
This full day event takes place at the Inmarsat Conference Centre, EC1, and features an impressive line-up including:
- Dr Leandro Herrero, author and CEO of The Chalfont Project – on redefining employee engagement, communication, advocacy and activism inside the organisation
- Alison Esse, Director at The Storytellers – on how to harness the power of storytelling to keep people connected during times of change
- David Ferrabee of Hill & Knowlton – on communicating outsourcing, downsizing and strategy change
- Stephen Welch of Hay Group – on tackling internal climate change
- Paul Inglefield and Ashley Wilcox of Camden Council – on introducing a new vision and priorities
- Anne Eriksen of Maersk Line – on linking internal communications to business strategy
…not to mention some guy called Lee Smith who will be chairing the event.
Further details are now available on the CIPR website – including the full conference brochure.
The conference costs £395+VAT for CIPR members and £495+VAT for non-members. To reserve a place email hollyb@cipr.co.uk. The fee includes a copy of Lyn Smith and Pamela Mounter’s book, Effective Internal Communications.
It promises to be an excellent event (if I say so myself!) and I hope to see you there.
