Connect with peers and learn about the city of Lenexa’s communications strategy in a time of growth.

The city of Lenexa will be hosting us for our December KC IABC Coffee Chat. Lenexa has seen tremendous growth and development over the past two decades and even more is planned for the future. Its Lenexa City Center campus opened in 2017, as part of its Vision 2020 comprehensive plan, and includes a new City Hall, public market, recreation center, offices, restaurants and more. Denise Rendina leads the communications team for Lenexa and has been with the city during this historical time of growth. She will share her department’s role in communicating these changes and keeping citizens informed.

The event is free for all but registration is required.
