Presenting is an important skill for communicators, and others, but it can be daunting if you’re not confident or don’t know where to start
We know that connected organisations are able to make better decisions and achieve more collectively. Finding ways to create connections is therefore an important role for the comms team.
Listening to the experiences of others is an important part of any communicator’s role. Employee networks can be a great place to hear perspectives and create solutions.
TV programmes like It’s A Sin can teach us a lot about how important it is to include everyone’s views and perspectives in our communications
There is no such thing as no communication at all – if you don’t have a plan to communicate about your project, something will fill the void and your project will soon run into trouble.
A spring clean of your communications content can take place at any time, even in the summer months if that works for you – whenever you do it, the benefits are well worth the effort
Being a professional communicator can be stressful, so finding ways to support your own wellbeing is important
The audiences within your organisation will have different experiences and perspectives – you need to tailor your communications to meet a range of needs.
When you are clear about your communication purpose, it makes planning and delivering your activities much easier.
