About The Event:

The 5th Annual National Public Sector Communication Officers’ Conference 2014 will bring together communication professionals from all tiers of government with a strategic interest in internal and external stakeholder engagement.

Dealing with rapid change, managing budgetary constraints, and adapting to the varying world of social media whilst improving the integrity of online communication are key focuses for communication officers today. Maintaining an open channel of communication with stakeholders during significant change and organisational reform is key in this environment.

Speakers at this conference will demonstrate key successes in addressing these issues through case studies, interactive discussions and workshop sessions. They will present tools for effective campaign management, media engagement and look at enhancing the responsiveness of communication departments during rapid change, agency transition and crisis scenarios.

Designed for communication professionals to adapt and become more effective in their role, this conference ensures delegates at all levels of their careers will be able to take away a plan to design, implement and take a more considered and effective direction to communication strategies. Register early to secure places and find out why this has become the ‘must attend’ event for Public Sector communication professionals!
