Peer-Coaching Enrollment Closes Tonight


Hi!

A quick reminder that enrollment for the next cycle of T2B’s Peer-Learning Practicum (PLP) closes tonight, and won’t reopen until the summer cycle.

If you’re a T2B Pro or Student member, you can still enroll by completing this short form to be placed in a cohort:

👉 Enroll here

Note: If you’re currently a T2B Basic member, you’ll need to upgrade to Pro before registering. All Pro and Student members are guaranteed a spot.

What the PLP offers

The Peer-Learning Practicum brings T2B Pro members together in small, facilitated peer-coaching cohorts designed for candid, thoughtful conversation. It’s built for communicators who want a trusted space to compare notes, work through challenges, and learn from peers across different roles and career stages.

Participants consistently tell us the same thing: the cohort becomes a space where they can show up honestly and talk about what’s really happening in their work and careers.

This cycle’s cohort leads

Each group is guided by an experienced comms leader who creates an inclusive, responsive environment:

  • Reba Auslander — Owner & CEO, RAliance Communications
  • Katie Burns — Executive Vice President & Managing Director, SmithSolve
  • Karen Bergman — VP, Communications & Investor Relations, Bolt Biotherapeutics
  • Anca Ammon — Principal, Ammon Communications (returning lead)
  • Ed Crossin — Senior Digital Intelligence Manager, Group Communications, Roche
  • Arran Attridge — Principal, Attridge Communications
  • Alison Woo — Founder, Alison Woo Consulting
  • Debbie Etchison — Executive Director, Head of Corporate Affairs, Alkeus Pharmaceuticals (returning lead)

What to do by tonight to enroll in a cohort

  1. Upgrade to T2B Pro (if you’re not already a member)
  2. Enroll in the PLP (not a competitive application; all Pro members are guaranteed a spot)
  3. Get matched — I personally form cohorts based on background, career stage, and location

Repeat PLP members welcome! If you’ve participated before, you’re welcome to re-enroll, and I’ll place you in a new group.

Hi! Misinformation has become part of the backdrop of comms work, often surfacing in ways that don’t have a clear owner, a clean definition, or an obvious playbook. This is especially true in our industry, where information moves quickly, context gets lost, and trust is uneven across audiences. Biopharma communicators are navigating fragmented information ecosystems, rising skepticism, and new dynamics driven by social media and AI-accelerated content. The challenge isn’t always about...

Hi! Tomorrow we’ll be hosting the first T2B Comm Convo of 2026, focused on the state of the FDA one year into the current administration. While this topic may seem very specific, our speaker prep call reiterated that what’s happening at the FDA and adjacent government agencies right now, of course, goes well beyond this being a regulatory or government affairs issue... because it's also shaping how our decisions as communicators get framed, how risk is managed, and how we advise leadership....
