Communica continues to add to and strengthen Calgary team

[Larry and Dymphny join the Calgary office]

Larry Veilleux joined Communica in November as the company’s new Senior Consultant, Aboriginal Engagement. Larry will lead this key practice, and help build an Aboriginal Engagement team for Communica. He has more than 25 years of experience working with First Nations, including almost two decades in senior Community and Aboriginal Affairs roles with Ranger Oil, PanCanadian Petroleum and Willbros Canada, and as a Senior Consultant with Golder Associates Ltd. He has had extensive “on the ground” experience with First Nations consultation in B.C., Alberta and the N.W.T. and was Chairman of the CAPP Community and Aboriginal Relations Committee for five years.

Dymphny Dronyk has joined the Communica team as a Senior Associate. Dymphny has specialized in stakeholder and community relations, crisis communication and emergency preparedness for both corporate and non-profit sectors for more than 17 years. She has held management positions in resource industry projects throughout Western Canada and has a special interest in oil and gas mediation and negotiation. She has a background in journalism and public relations, and is also an author, editor and publisher.

These additions bring the complement of Communica to 20 people, in Alberta and B.C. – a strong and seasoned team of professionals who can meet a wide range of client needs for stakeholder and Aboriginal engagement and consultation, corporate communication and stakeholder information management.

You’ve gotta dance like there’s nobody watching

Recently, Communica extended some holiday cheer to our clients at the Oil Sands Leadership Initiative, and our Executive Team – Doug, Dan and Jim – thought it would be a good idea to do the same for the rest of our clients, colleagues and friends. So on behalf of the talented team at Communica, happy holidays and warm wishes for 2012.
