executive director, sits down with Maliha Aqeel, IABC chair, Kamyar Naficy, IABC vice chair, and Danielle Bond, IABC past chair (2021-2022) to discuss the year ahead.


This conversation has something for everyone: how comms

pros can wield influence in the C-suite and within their own teams, the importance of tapping into geopolitics, what it means to be a communicator in a post-truth world, influencers they’re following in the new year, a caveat against algorithms, Wordle vs. Connections — and so much more!

just a few of the minds of IABC’s past and present leadership.
