Internal communication
Engaged, productive, happy, loyal employees are great for business. They also enhance your employment brand, putting you ahead of competitors when recruiting talented and skilled people.
Knowing the value of great internal communications is one thing; consistently doing it is another. All too often people’s ‘real jobs’ get in the way and employee communication can be overlooked in the rush to connect with customers, shareholders and the news media.
Many years’ internal communication experience in-house, as a contractor and as a consultant has provided me with valuable insights. I also understand the challenges of communicating with diverse and dispersed work-forces – from university educated managers, to front-line employees working in remote locations.
