Revealed: First lineup of masterclass experts for PRmoment Leaders In-house Programme

Since the successful launch of PRmoment Leaders for senior agency team members, we’ve seen significant interest from across the industry for a matching programme for client-side comms professionals. We’re delighted to respond by launching our inaugural PRmoment Leaders programme developed specifically for professional communicators operating within the corporate world.

The PRmoment Leaders In-house Programme is designed to accelerate learning for comms professionals, while preparing them to lead in-house communications teams in the future. Made up of 11 core elements in a flexible and cost-effective package, PRmoment Leaders is a training platform and community designed to help the best people in PR and comms to learn, network and lead.

Central to our proposition is a series of masterclasses, delivered by high-profile experts. I’m delighted to reveal the lineup of experts for our first semester starting in September. Nicola Green of Virgin Media O2, Charlotte West of Lenovo, Darshna Kamani of Dynatrace, Paul de Lara of Oracle and Paul Wheeler of Kellanova are all highly respected in-house communicators for leading brands. Rachel Minty and Karen Noctor are leaders of the well-respected agency, Blurred.

Below is the full speaker and topic line up.
