The Digital Workplace Group (DWG) is pleased to announce that Paul Miller, CEO and Founder of the Digital Workplace Forum and the Digital Workplace Group has been invited to give a keynote talk at the forthcoming Melcrum Digital Communication Summit.
Melcrum’s Digital Communication Summit will focus on the role of communicators in building an engaged and collaborative workforce in the digital workplace. It takes place in London on the 27-28 March 2012.
Paul Miller said “I’m looking forward to speaking at the Digital Communication Summit. Melcrum’s events are always excellent, and provide an exciting opportunity to swap notes with thought leaders in the internal communications area.”
“My keynote is titled the ‘Collaborative Workplace’. Technology is currently transforming work itself. It’s changing the way leaders communicate and employees collaborate, moving from the confines of the physical office to a new Digital Workplace. I’ll be looking at what we can expect to see in 2012 as the world of intranets and digital communication start to evolve.”
Miller will be drawing on the insights contained in his new book “The Digital Workplace: How Technology is Liberating Work” which is due for publication in March.
