Event management is right up there as one of the most demanding jobs an internal communicator does, because success and failure are very visible. So how do you add the extra spark that makes your events engaging and inspiring for employees? The secret is to involve them from the planning stage onwards. You don't have to double the budget, just blend in an interactive dimension leading up to, during and after the event.
This handy guide will provide you with ideas that will help you put together a highly engaging agenda, capture employees' attention and raise awareness in the run-up to the event. There are tips on the use of polls and crowdsourcing, providing seamless access to event logistics and using apps to encourage interaction.
And of course when the event is over, it's not really over. That's when the all-important evaluation takes place, where any lessons can be exchanged before yet another successful event is celebrated!

Internal communication is under real pressure. IC teams are expected to support leaders, shape culture, and deliver relevant, personalized communication to an increasingly diverse audience—all while operating at greater speed and scale than ever before. AI arrives at the right moment. It doesn’t replace communicators; it elevates them. Applied well, AI sharpens the fundamentals of effective communication: diagnosing issues, shaping the narrative, guiding leaders, and delivering messages that connect people to purpose and progress. At its best, AI accelerates drafting, adapts content for different formats, improves accessibility, and surfaces insights about what’s landing. Without governance, though, it can create noise or risk. The opportunity for IC teams is to bring AI in thoughtfully, with governance and human judgment at the center. This guide shows how to do exactly that. Inside, you’ll find practical guidance on when to use AI, where humans remain essential, how to establish guardrails, how to prompt effectively, and how to scale AI responsibly across channels and teams.

Clear answers on security, data protection, integrations, deployment, AI governance, and enterprise scalability.
