Corporate Communications Strategy Council II

Apply Here

An organization’s reputation is only as good as its corporate communications strategy. As the chief architects of our companies’ messages, we must stay abreast of emerging trends - changing market and workplace demographics, global business conditions, new media applications - while helping our leaders recognize the strategic communications issues embedded in corporate growth plans. We also discuss topics such as these recent agenda items:

Communicating in and about an economic crisis
Leveraging the sustainability message
The newest social media networking tools
Measuring corporate reputation
Issue and crisis communications
Public affairs & reputation management

The Council provides a unique opportunity to have discussions on emerging communication issues with peer companies.

My company’s always been very supportive of training— seminars, plus we have a robust internal training mechanism. But there’s a point in your career where the returns on that diminish. I tend not to do any other training or education now beyond my Council membership.

I report to the General Counsel at our company. He’s a man who doesn’t like to sit in meetings. But he’s a member at The Conference Board. He said his experiences with The Conference Board are the only impactful and actionable professional experiences he’s ever found.

Michelle Goret, VP Communication, Cinatas
