Connect on Tour - Dallas/Fort Worth 2026
Nov. 13, 2026, 9 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. CST
Every day, communicators are tasked with reaching employees who may never sit at a desk, open an email or log onto an intranet.
Whether they're working on an airport ramp, manufacturing floor, hospital unit, retail location or in the field, frontline employees are essential to organizational success—and often the hardest audience to reach.
Board with the PRSA Employee Communications Section for a one-day professional development experience designed to help communication leaders develop stronger employee engagement.
During this immersive event, you'll hear from communication professionals who are successfully navigating the challenges of reaching mobile and distributed workforces through innovative channel strategies, audience targeting, manager communications and digital workplace solutions.
Your Itinerary Includes:
- Keynote presentation from the DFW Airport Internal Communications Team
- Real-world case studies from Dallas-Fort Worth communication leaders
- Strategies for reaching employees across multiple locations and work environments
- Best practices for audience segmentation and channel selection
- Networking with fellow communicators and industry peers
- Actionable information you can implement immediately
No matter where your employees work, every message deserves a clear route to its destination.
Join us at DFW Airport and discover how to keep your workforce connected from takeoff to touchdown.
