Methods and systems are provided for enhancing communications mobility in an enterprise a distributed communication controller. The distributed communication controller integrates user devices and conference equipment and provides the user with directions within an enterprise to an appropriate location to conduct a conference call. The distributed communication controller determines that a conference meeting is about to begin and determines a location of the user device. Based on a capability of the user device and the requirements of the conference meeting, the distributed communication controller sends navigation instructions that direct the user to a location in an enterprise facility to successfully conduct a conference call. The navigation instructions are provided in real time as the user moves throughout the facility.
