Sia Papageorgiou

FRSA, GCSCE, SCMP

Sia is our managing partner at the Centre for Strategic Communication Excellence and co-founder of The Alignment People and Gifted Professionals & Communicators Community. She’s a multi-award-winning communication leader who has elevated the value and visibility of communication professionals globally and has helped them become trusted, strategic, and in-demand advisors.

“Sia Papageorgiou is seen for more than just her leadership within the CSCE but also her leadership in our global profession. With over 50 awards for her communication work alone, she has also been recognised as a leader at the local, regional and international levels of the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC), receiving the chapter leader award at IABC Victoria, Communicator of the Year Award in the Asia Pacific region and the prestigious Rae Hamlin Award for her work in evangelising global certification.

Sia is a thought leader in strategic communication management and has had a long and distinguished career in the public and private sectors. She has been asked to speak at dozens of industry conferences, sharing her strategic knowledge and insight. Sia also champions women in PR and mental wellbeing within the communication profession. She is active with the Global Alliance for PR and Communication Management, having spoken on a panel recently in Chennai, India, for the World PR Forum. Sia has introduced new ways of thinking about the practice of professional communication through the many research projects she has led. Two pieces of work she initiated were a global research study about the state of mental wellbeing in the communication profession in 2021 amidst a worldwide pandemic. It was a unique study that resulted in an awareness building of the need for communication professionals to be in touch with their mental wellbeing. Before the study, Sia co-authored the publication ‘Mental Health & Wellbeing: A Guide Through the Noise for Communication Professionals, in 2020. The other significant and groundbreaking study was on Communicating Artificial Intelligence. Sia led the work in 2019 to produce The AI Playbook for Communication Professionals out of that research, supporting professionals globally in advising organisations on communicating about AI. The playbook was awarded an IABC Gold Quill Award of Excellence,” says CSCE founding partner Adrian Cropley OAM.

Congratulations, Sia! Thank you for your tireless efforts in enhancing the value and visibility of communication professionals, as well as for your remarkable contributions to the CSCE!
