What is Innovation Sprint London?

Orla Clancy:

During the past month, I have had a series of conversations with communication leaders across corporate organisations, agencies, associations and specialist disciplines.

Some of those conversations happened in Brussels, others happened over coffee, Zoom calls, industry events and introductions.

What I love about the Strategic community is not only its openness, but its eagerness to collaborate, challenge ideas, and collectively progress the communication profession. 

These conversations are now shaping Innovation Sprint, which will take place on 17 September in London. 

It will involve a cross-functional mix of communication leaders, specialists, Strategic Ecosystem Partners and Industry Leadership Partners.

The three main challenges that have been identified through my conversations, and will form the foundation of this executive working session are:

1. Proving communication value and ROI
2. Organisational trust and the say-do gap
3. Leadership and AI implementation 

Together, participants will work to achieve a greater understanding of leadership challenges, and develop frameworks and practical approaches that can be implemented within organisations.

The objective is not to diagnose challenges, but to help communication leaders move toward greater organisational influence, business impact and strategic leadership.

We are deliberately keeping the group small to support meaningful discussion, collaboration, and high-quality executive engagement during this curated working session.
