Many have laddered up to roles in Marketing\, Human Resources executives\, or even Legal heads. But with the evolving global landscape\, marked by increasing complexities and the unprecedented climate crisis\, CEOs are increasingly looking for adept communicators to navigate the organisation through uncertainty. The crucial question that arises is: how can you secure your seat at the table of decision-makers? Gain valuable insights from some of New Zealand’s foremost PR experts\, who will come together in a panel to bring first-hand experience from their roles within executive leadership teams. To ensure a robust and valuable conversation for attendees\, this event will have limited tickets available and operate under Chatham House Rules.   						\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n							Leela Gantman\, Director of Corporate Relations and Sustainability at Spark New Zealand Leela joined Spark as Corporate Relations and Sustainability Director in January 2020\, bringing with her over 20 years’ experience in corporate and agency roles in New Zealand and Australia.
