Here’s how you can lead on the road from Turin

Posted on

In the run-up to Eurocomm, the word spread fast through Facebook and LinkedIn – enabling us to reach a new audience and also connect people in advance of the conference.

Hundreds of Tweets in the run-up culminated in 1000+ firing through the ether during EuroComm itself, spreading the word further, creating new links, new connections…

Now, here’s how you can help yourself … and the IABC going forward:

  1. Good stuff, it sounds like you had a good conference.

    At the same time, IABC in Europe has a serious positioning challenge. It has a couple of niches it could exploit very well – focusing on English Language business communication or on providing a home for independents and consultants in the way EACD is successfully positioning itself as a home for in-house communicators.

    As it is, IABCEME comes across as nice but indistinct. That creates the difference between a 100 person conference and a 1000 person conference.
