Agility isn't a buzzword, but a necessity for companies to survive and thrive. It needs to be woven into the workplace so teams can adapt and respond to change - fast. Without agility, companies (and comms folks) get left behind.
A transformational change in the workplace is as big as it sounds. Looking to the future, the organisation is reshaping its entire business to be more successful, to respond to the evolving needs of its customers or to overcome persistent or potential challenges. It could take years. But never lose sight of the fact that your people are key to taking you in this new direction. We asked five experts for their top tips.
Companies are increasingly undergoing digital, tech and business transformations, or adopting Agile Ways of Working to ensure they’re set up to be sustainable in the future.
In this webinar we heard more about the second edition of the IC Index, with a focus on Trust. This unique research undertaken in partnership between the IoIC and Ipsos Karian & Box, explores the impact of internal communication on UK employees and how we can drive strategic value to organisations.
On this webinar, Mark Dollins, author of the new book, Engaging Employees Through Strategic Communication, shared insights on the growing needs for change communications skills, and the connection to clear, compelling narratives.
On this webinar we were joined by Kimberley-Marie Sklinar, Communication Manager, and Amanda Coleman, Crisis Comms Consultant, as they discussed the challenges of communicating about world events, such as the crisis unfolding in Ukraine, and how to overcome them.
Especially in times of organisational change it is more important than ever to invest time and effort in communicating with clarity, relevance and impact.
For organisations to successfully change, good internal communication is a must. Research supports this. But communicating change effectively can be challenging.
Bridging the gap to help people perform at their best. In May 2019, we gathered in Bath with over 170 internal communication professionals at the IoIC National Conference to discuss our theme, We Matter At Work.

The Crisis Management and Resilience Workshop: Planning for the Unexpected can prepare you for crises, or unexpected events so you are always ready to respond swiftly, factually and honestly to retain the support of those who matter most: your employees and stakeholders.
The course will show you how crisis planning enables you and your employees to prove your organisation’s dependability, show initiative and demonstrate leadership skills. It will encourage you to think “what if?” and to understand the short and long-term consequences of the change unexpected events can bring.
Many internal changes are driven by technology, process and digitalisation.
Being able to effectively support and communicate these changes can be an ongoing challenge for internal communicators, particularly those who aren't confident in 'tech talk' or tech ways of working.
This one-day workshop will provide communicators with practical knowledge and skills for planning and delivering great communications around tech change as well as guidance on working with, and influencing tech teams and partners.
The course - split over two highly interactive sessions - will provide attendees with the knowledge and skills they need to steer through the strategic maze and deliver clear, concise and strategic communications.
The course will equip participants with the understanding and tools they need to convert strategy into communications actions; play a role in strategy formulation and development; and the ability to prepare and implement their own communications strategy.
