The week ahead promises conferences galore for professional communicators. From social media conferences in New York to measurement breakfasts in London, there are lots of events to choose from.
Today’s What’s on this week covers 19 to 29 June 2016.
See the All Things IC comms calendar to plan further ahead and do let me know if there’s anything missing.
The past week has been a busy one for All Things IC. It included signing two new clients, visiting behind the scenes at the BBC in Bristol and advising a client on their merger communications.
It also saw the launch of a brand new comms measurement framework from the Association of Measurement & Evaluation of Communication (AMEC).
I wrote about AMEC’s framework on Thursday and encourage you to take a look if you want to know how to measure your communication activities.
