Amsterdam Regional Meeting: The Role of Communicators in the Age of Stakeholder Economy

How do you build reputation in today's fast-changing environment and what is the role of communication in the stakeholder economy?

A worldwide pandemic. Climate change. War in Ukraine. Refugee crises across Europe. Global supply chain collapse. Inflation at unprecedented levels. A looming recession. Today's cascade of issues has placed an increased emphasis on the need for our organizations to respond.

When stakeholders worry, reputations and communication matter more than ever. What organizations need to protect their reputation, and burnish it when they can, is agility and innovation. Speedy decisions, good judgment and great communication are essential. Yet often the ability to move as fast as the times demand is constrained by legacy behaviors, the deadweight of complex processes built up over time and the inevitable bureaucracy that stifles creativity.

Join us to dissect how to break through these barriers on 26, September 2022 at 15.30 CET at ABN AMRO headquarters for two impulses and a panel discussion.

Our speakers will be:

• Robert Swaak, CEO, ABN AMRO Bank NV
• Baptiest Coopmans, Senior Vice President, Liberty Global and former CEO at VodafoneZiggo
• Cees van Riel, Prof. Dr., RSM Erasmus University Rotterdam

The opening and panel discussion will be facilitated by Page country chair Marc Cloosterman of VIM Group.

The meeting will be hosted at The Circl in Amsterdam at the courtesy of ABN AMRO, represented by heads of communication Suzanne Kordelaar and Jeroen van Maarschalkerweerd.
