On the back of the success of last year’s debate, Everything is fair game in communication, we’re proud to announce another cracking team to duke it out around one of the most talked about subjects: Communication is one of the most disrupted professions.

The world of communication is in various stages of disarray, evolution and transformation. Communication functions are being forced to reorganise and reimagine themselves as they try to cope with the digital evolution, and are being asked to lead enterprise-wide initiatives ranging from employee engagement, change management, social activism, and enterprise risk. Complicating these challenges is the fact that traditional organisational structures have also changed.
