Internal communicators are drivers of change. As their discipline has evolved, so too have the strategies and tactics required to create an authentic, powerful employee experience.

Join us April 16–18 in the heart of Chicago for Ragan’s Employee Communications & Culture Conference and come away with practical and innovative ideas to implement back in the office — or in home offices and hybrid workplaces. You’ll walk away with the tools you need to supersize your strategies, level up your learnings and elevate your comms, while forging connections and sharing knowledge with industry peers and informed colleagues.

From change communications to interdepartmental collaboration to crafting content and thought leadership that keeps employees engaged, informed and wanting more, this conference will give you the blueprint to build a better work environment. Interactive sessions and engaging instruction from experts in the trade provide the ultimate peer-to-peer experience sprinkled with inspirational keynotes, interactive workshops, sessions, lively debates and plenty of networking so you can connect with industry colleagues and forge new friendships.
