Conference programme: Comms@10
"Inspiring Success" was the theme of this year's Network conference. The programme focused on how strong communications can contribute to an organisation's success.
Inspiring success - Comms@10, was held on Tuesday, 10 August at the Quality Hotel, Cuba Street, Wellington.
We focused on how you measure what you do so you can show the effectiveness of the communications function. Our presenters demonstrated what inspiring communications look like, how you evaluate it, and how you model it.
We explored how communications has to adapt to remain successful in a changing environment where we have to do more, with less.
