Fellows Session 1 / It’s not about earning a seat at the table—it’s about what you do when you get there

Date: Tuesday, 24 June
Time: 7:15–8:15 a.m.
Track: Communication Leadership

Employees are being forced to prove their worth, and communication functions are not exempt. It’s when communication practitioners think they’re exempt that bad things happen—like people and budgets being cut. But did you ever know a CEO who reduced funds for a department that was generating big returns for the organization?

This session will show you how to:

  • Shift your work from information distributor to true business problem-solver
  • Uncover and eliminate communication breakdowns that annoy others and drain value
  • Reposition yourself to improve your organization, earn more rewards and feel great about being part of the leadership team

Presenter / Jim Shaffer, IABC Fellow / Maryland, USA, is an internationally recognized expert in improving business performance and managing large-scale organizational change. He leads the Jim Shaffer Group, a consultancy devoted to helping leaders create a competitive advantage through superior communication management.
