Internal communication audits

Internal communication audits are a great way to identify any strengths and weaknesses of the current approach and provide valuable insights needed to develop a robust internal communication strategy that’s aligned with your business goals.

An audit would normally consist of a mix of 1:1 leadership conversations, employee focus groups and surveys, plus an evaluation of internal data, such as engagement surveys and outputs of employee listening groups.

Reviewing your channel strategy

If your channels have been in place for a while, or grown organically without audience research or strategy, they may not be delivering the desired impact.

An independent review of how your channels are serving the needs of the business, and how they’re meeting the needs of employees, will ensure the valuable communication resource of people, time and budget, is used to maximise effect.

Communication planning

Having a robust internal communication plan in place that aligns with organisational goals is vital for minimising communication chaos, the noise of too much information shared in an ad hoc way.

By working with you to connect the dots, I can create a comprehensive and measurable communication plan that outlines the steps needed to deliver your objectives.

Content planning and creation

Great content needs time and research to create. Not to mention the internal review process…

Creating a forward plan of joined-up content that’s aligned with the communication strategy and the needs of your audience groups cuts out the chaos and helps employees make sense of what’s being said in an organisation.

Your internal communications partner

Internal communication teams of one, or growing businesses that need help setting up an internal communications function, often find that working with an independent specialist is the perfect solution.

I’ve worked with clients as an outsourced partner for many years, providing strategic and tactical communication expertise on a part-time basis.

Interim hands-on support

Sometimes you just need an extra pair of hands. An internal communication expert who has the experience to hit the ground running.

By working with you on a freelance and interim day-rate basis, I provide valuable support when it’s needed it most.
