Europe's most popular communications, PR
and media conversation

September 19, 2011 #CommsChat on technology and internal communication

On 19 September, #CommsChat will focus on how technology can make the task of internal communications easier. For businesses with large, mobile workforces, solving the problem of how to communicate with staff is a perennial issue. How can the comms function address this without relying on 3G connections, investing in hugely expensive equipment, or losing man-hours?

We’ll be joined by Mark K Smith (@ipadio) from Ipadio, a company that provides communications solutions through combining telephony and the internet, and by Dale Parmenter (@drpgroup), managing director at DRP Group, one of Europe’s largest, fully integrated communications agencies. We’d love to hear from you on the technology that you think is making internal communications for corporates easier.

Topics up for discussion tonight include:

– What are the major issues that corporate organisations with large workforces face in terms of internal communications?
– To what extent should communicators be relying on technology for internal engagement? And what are the best tools that are currently out there?
– How can better internal communication help a company’s overall business strategy?
– Can you ever create meaningful engagement through technological interfaces?
– Can we predict how internal comms technology will develop over the next five years?

#CommsChat will take place on 19 September at 8pm, right here on the CommsChat website. We hope you can make it!
