This Strategic Summit is designed for corporate, business, public sector and military communications directors and public affairs officers; information operations officers; corporate communications and public relations professionals; and executives from corporations, government agencies, the Department of Defense and military branches, the intelligence community, universities and NGOs with responsibilities in the following areas:
Connection
We have so much in common; many more similarities than differences.
At StratCommWorld, we share common ground, though no two of us are alike. This conference celebrates our connection across public and private sectors, between businesses and industries, across cultures and geography, age, gender and ethnicity, and yes, politics. We learn about our strengths by discovering each other, professionally and personally, in a two-day conference communicating with one another.
Connection. This is our theme for StratCommWorld.
StratCommWorld is a conference aimed at showcasing best practices in strategic communications at the intersection of corporate communications, military public affairs, and government relations. The context for our work is very different in these diverse sectors, but it turns out, the strategies we use are strikingly similar.
Welcome to our world―StratCommWorld.
StratCommWorld is organized by the non-profit Strategic Communications Leadership Initiative with support from companies, private sector sponsors and the U.S. military.

The Strategic Communications Leadership Initiative
The Strategic Communications Leadership Initiative provides thought leadership and sets standards for practicing strategic communications, thereby advancing the profession. We identify and endorse best practices to enhance engagement and share methods to increase the effectiveness and value of strategic communications. We do this by encouraging diverse thinking, fostering learning and achieving synergy of ideas and innovation among people and across organizations. The SCLI engages an active volunteer Board of Advisors, advises on the program content at a National Summit on Strategic Communications, and conducts interactive programs, seminars and training to share knowledge and expertise within the professional community. www.thescli.org
