The conference was a great exercise in networking and learning about the shared challenges and opportunities we have in internal communications from people who “get it”.
This is an excellent conference! Dynamic, diverse speakers; interesting, engaging sessions. I learned so much, made some great new connections, and really enjoyed the venue and food (three cheers for healthy snacks)!
I was expecting a giant conference room with 300 people and have been surprisingly pleased with the amount of real-life connections possible in a small group.

Workshop: Equipping Frontline Leaders to Drive Lasting Culture Change
Shea Sullivan, SCMP, CEO & Principal Consultant | Comms at Work
Corporate culture may be drawn up in the C-suite, but it lives (and either thrives or dies) with the frontline. Too often, culture and change programs fail to reach or resonate with the very people who shape the daily employee experience, and end up being little more than words on a poster. This workshop will guide you through building a sustainable approach to culture and change that empowers managers, maintains momentum, and drives positive business outcomes.
Key Takeaways:
Conduct effective audits to identify gaps and opportunities across the organization
Engage all levels in shared change plans and forging a collective, non-combative culture
Train and equip managers with practical communication tools, messaging and feedback mechanisms
Design rewards and recognition programs to reinforce and sustain meaningful change

Workshop: You Are On Every Line: Designing Frontline Communication that Creates Clarity, Trust & Human Connection
Kevin Finke, Founder | Experience Willow
Frontline communicators are on every line.
You are on the line between corporate strategy and operational reality. Between what leaders intend and what employees actually hear. Between information sent and meaning made. Between change announced and change understood. Between the organization’s priorities and the everyday work of the people closest to the customer, patient, guest, product, or community.And now, as generative AI transforms how communication is created, distributed, translated, personalized, and measured, your role as a frontline communicator is becoming even more important. AI can help produce more content, but frontline employees do not need more noise. They need communication that is clear, credible, relevant, timely, human, and useful in the flow of their work.
In this interactive workshop, you will:
Explore the evolving role of frontline communication in an AI-enabled world and reconnect with the human value you bring as a clarifier, translator, connector, facilitator, and trust builder.
Examine the “lines” where communication often breaks down and learn a simple meaning-making framework you can use to strengthen frontline communication.
Leave with a clearer sense of your role, practical prompts for improving real communication challenges, and renewed language for designing communication that helps frontline employees understand what matters, trust what they hear, and act with clarity.
Because the future of frontline communication is not just about faster content or smarter channels. It is about helping frontline workers make sense of work, change, leadership, and belonging in the the moments that matter most for them.

Workshop: When Change Overloads the Frontline: A Communications Strategy for Healthcare’s Deskless Workforce
Erin Abbey, Founder | Abbey Communications Group
Healthcare organizations rarely implement one thing at a time. When a major technology rollout lands on top of existing clinical and operational demands, the instinctive response is to communicate more. More emails. More town halls. More updates. For a deskless, shift-based workforce, including frontline clinical staff and non-clinical employees who rarely see a screen during their workday, that response does not just fail. It makes things worse. The result is a workforce that is overloaded, not informed, and an adoption curve that stalls precisely when it needs to accelerate.
This session draws on direct experience leading technology rollout communications across large, distributed healthcare workforces, including clinical and non-clinical employee populations with fundamentally different relationships to change, technology, and organizational messaging. It addresses what change saturation actually costs, why adding communication volume is the wrong response, and what the right strategy looks like in practice.
Attendees will leave with a practical framework for assessing change load, making sequencing decisions, and designing a communications strategy that reflects the real capacity of a healthcare workforce, not an idealized one.
The Problem This Session Addresses
Most healthcare organizations underestimate the communications burden of a technology implementation because they plan the rollout in isolation. When the initiative launches into a workforce already absorbing other changes, the cumulative load creates conditions where even well-designed communications fail. Employees are not resisting. They are overloaded.
The communications profession has the tools to address this, but only if it operates upstream of the rollout plan, not downstream of it. This session makes the case for that shift and shows what it looks like in a complex healthcare environment.
Key Takeaways
How to conduct a change saturation assessment before a rollout communications plan is built, using inputs that most communications teams already have access to.
A sequencing model that aligns communications volume and timing with actual workforce capacity, accounting for the different rhythms of clinical and non-clinical employee populations.
How to equip people managers as the primary communications channel for frontline employees when direct reach is structurally limited.
A framework for making the case to senior leadership that fewer, better-timed messages produce stronger adoption outcomes than high-volume communications campaigns.

Case Study: Reaching Every Shift: How GEODIS Built a Multi-Channel Communication Program for Frontline Employees
Tobi Anderson, Head of Customer Experience | Speakap
Ashley Youngsma, Director of Corporate Communications and Branding | GEODIS
When your workforce spans across warehouse campuses throughout the U.S. — working across shifts, buildings, and roles, without company email or a desk to sit at — standard communication tools don't cut it. Before GEODIS built what it has today, critical updates depended on supervisors, huddles, and a lot of hope that the right message reached the right person on the right shift.
Join Ashley Youngsma and Tobi Anderson as they walk through the real journey of building and maturing a frontline communication program from the ground up — including the decision to launch a dedicated employee mobile app, what it took to build the internal case for it, and what surprised them on day one.
Key Takeaways:
The business case for multi-channel communication: how piloting an app-based update strategy reduced stand-up meeting time and returned employees to the warehouse floor faster
How to structure content delivery across campuses, buildings, and employee types — including hourly versus salaried populations — to increase relevance and reach at scale
How to balance central communications strategy with local administrator ownership to keep content timely and meaningful across a nationally distributed workforce
11:45 am - 12:20 pm

Case Study: Why Internal Communication Matters Most When Disruption Comes from the Outside
Gina DeBoni, Managing and Senior Partner | Romanucci & Blandin
Jennifer McGuffin, Chief Communications Officer | Romanucci Blandin Law
Many leaders reflexively react to an external event, reputational crisis, product problem or industry issue by crafting messaging for media, investors or social media. Two senior leaders of a highly respected national law firm will discuss why you need to pause and put internal communication first on that list. Together, Romanucci & Blandin Chief Communications Officer Jennifer McGuffin and Managing & Senior Partner Gina DeBoni have navigated headline making cases and highly-charged issues like the death of George Floyd and the death of Renee Good by a federal agent in Minneapolis, along with mass shootings, human trafficking and toxic environmental exposure in highly populated areas – always keeping their internal team informed on what’s happening, what’s known and not known and what next steps will be before addressing national and global media and lawmakers.
Key takeaways will be:
Understanding what’s a game-changing issue and what’s not, and using instinct and experience to anticipate possible issues from various stakeholders… why waiting for things to blow over can blow up
Strategies for sequencing communications to prioritize internal leaders and staff as your organization’s ambassadors
The key to being decisive on solutions: Knowing how much to say, how quickly to say it and how to frame major change as a unifying event for the team

Case Study: The Newsletter Most Often Skipped Until The People Reading It Started Writing It
Leslie Tiongco, Director, Internal Communications | DePaul University
DePaul University serves nearly 20,000 students, alongside faculty and staff. Many of these audiences share a defining trait with deskless workers: they check phones rather than sit at desks and are often disconnected from traditional internal channels. A year ago, DePaul's new Internal Communications team inherited the university's internal newsletter, a long-running publication with a mixed reputation, low readership and near-total student disengagement. The team split the newsletter into two distinct editions, one for students, one for faculty and staff and then rebuilt the student edition around a simple idea: let students speak for themselves. Student employees now drive the voice of the newsletter through their own photos, quotes and recommendations in language no communications team could replicate on its own. The result: student readership at an all-time high. This session walks through that transformation, the strategies behind it and fresh survey data on what's working now.
10:05 am - 10:40 am
Case Study: Communication Unplugged: Real-World Strategies for Today's Challenges

Lurie Children’s Hospital as it navigated its growth from 4,000 to 10,000 employees. The presentation will delve into the paradox of declining employee engagement alongside rising patient outcomes and illustrate how communication infrastructure either carries culture through transitions or allows it to erode.
Attendees will learn about the key decisions made during pivotal moments, including a major facility move and an unexpected cyberattack, and how these events informed our communication strategies moving forward. We’ll discuss actionable lessons on fostering an inclusive culture amidst organizational change while addressing what it truly means to engage a largely deskless workforce.
Get ready for a masterclass in transforming communication challenges into strategic opportunities!

This is an excellent conference! Dynamic, diverse speakers; interesting, engaging sessions. I learned so much, made some great new connections, and really enjoyed the venue and food (three cheers for healthy snacks)!
