What’s coming up over the next 10 days? Here’s my regular look at what’s going on in the world of comms, so you can plan your diaries from 8 – 17 June 2015 and keep updated.
On Saturday night I co-hosted the iconic Hobson & Holtz report alongside Shel Holtz @shelholtz. The podcast, which has been running for 10 years, covers the intersection of communication and technology.
Shel and I spoke about All Things IC, the role of internal communication, the future of IC and much more. I had great fun and will let you know when it’s up. You’ll be able to find it on iTunes on Monday 8 June 2015.
My own All Things IC podcast, which is part of the FIR podcast network, will be back later this year.
