Company Continues to Bring Digital Communication Best Practices to Government Organizations Across the Country
GovDelivery announced today that Washington, DC is the next stop on its national 2014 Digital Communications Tour: The Power of Reach, designed to help government agencies across the country transform digital communications and drive greater mission impact. On Wednesday, April 23, 2014, GovDelivery and its public sector clients will gather in Washington, DC to share best practices for reaching large online audiences and improving government communications in a timely, cost-effective manner.
Open to all government employees and contractors, the complimentary event will review concrete steps agencies can take to engage more stakeholders to take action — online or offline — and truly drive mission value for their organizations. Attendees will hear from public sector experts providing insightful perspectives and strategies on government communications, as well as from peers in government discussing their successful projects.
At this event, communication experts will provide best practices around driving outreach and engagement. Steve Ressler, the Founder and President of GovLoop will deliver the keynote and share the trends he sees playing out in the GovLoop community of 100K government employees every day. Public sector communicators, including Cameron Brenchley, Director of Digital Strategy at the U.S. Department of Education, Alan Levy, Chief Web Officer at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and Kent Politsch, Chief of Public Affairs at the USDA Farm Service Agency, will share lessons learned and advice for leveraging digital technology to connect with more people and get them to take action.
“Effective citizen engagement is playing an increasingly important role in achieving mission results for public sector organizations,” said Scott Burns, CEO at GovDelivery. “While presenting a better solution for engaging citizens, the digital era also brings the challenges of a constantly growing and changing landscape of communication channels and tools. We’re proud to once again bring best practices to the doorsteps of those tasked with navigating this evolving world. Both industry experts and peers will be available to discuss highly valuable digital communication strategies and tactics needed to help government communicators address these challenges and remain focused on engaging more citizens, functioning more efficiently, and ultimately driving mission success.”
