We’re kicking off 2026 with First Fridays on Friday, February 6th at 8 am PT. Joining us this session are John Cirone, Sr Director Communications and Priscilla Samadi, Communications Manager at Microsoft.

How do you turn a global comms community into a force‑multiplier for alignment, learning, and faster execution? In this session, we’ll walk through how we run and resource the Global Employee & Executive Communications community, build global alignment through shared guidance, and invest in learning and skilling to help communicators become frontier-ready. You’ll also see how consistent programming, curated resources, and AI-enabled tools empower communicators to work faster, stay aligned, and scale impact across organizations.

  • AI‑Enabled Community Operating Model
    Learn how establishing a clear operating cadence keeps the community aligned and moving together. 
  • Guidance and Resources that Scale Global Comms
    With the help of AI agents, timely, aligned guidance and resources deliver consistent, high‑quality employee comms at speed globally.
  • Learning & Skilling for Frontier Communicators
    Ongoing development, peer sharing, and AI‑powered tools help community members build skills, work smarter, and stay ready for what’s next.
