At Echo Research, we consistently seek enriching dialogues with industry experts to share and develop best practice. It is with immense pleasure that we anticipate engaging in these pivotal discussions in the weeks ahead in New Jersey and New York.

As the Climate Week NYC ends, on 27 & 28 September 2023, we are hosting two private round-table debates on the changing role of the Chief Communications Officer, led by senior leaders recognized for their understanding of the often complex issues that drive reputation and underpin trust.

Our first discussion, on Wednesday 27^th,  is held in New Jersey and features valuable insights from Lez Cunningham, SVP, Corporate Communications & Corporate Marketing at Bristol-Myers Squibb. Joining Lez in conversation, is Kathryn Metcalfe, formerly the Chief Communications Officer at BMS, Aetna and CVS Health. Kathryn is currently a Visiting Professor in the Graduate Program in Public Relations and Corporate Communications Program at New York University. The discussion will be facilitated by Echo Advisory Board Member, Craig Rothernberg.

Our second event, on Thursday 28th takes place in New York and leading the discussion are Joe Evangelisti, Head of Worldwide Corporate Communications at JP Morgan, and Russell Dubner, Managing Director and Senior Partner, Trust & Leadership | Global Chief Communications Officer at BCG, facilitated by Echo Director, Ray Jordan

We look forward to the engaging content that will come out of these debates and how the role of communications and the use of insight is evolving and changing in the current climate.
