The Ultimate Guide to Internal Communications Strategy
Access Guide
About this Guide
The way we work, where we work, and how we work has fundamentally changed, with organizations now built around more scattered workforces than ever before.
In this fragmented, increasingly dispersed world of work, the glue that holds everything together, the oil that is critical to the smooth running of every aspect of the organization is clear, timely, and effective internal communication.
But for internal communications to be effective they must have a laser strategic focus on being employee-centric and achieving business goals. If not, they will fail.

The AI Toolkit for Internal Communications
Internal communication is under real pressure. IC teams are expected to support leaders, shape culture, and deliver relevant, personalized communication to an increasingly diverse audience—all while operating at greater speed and scale than ever before. AI arrives at the right moment. It doesn’t replace communicators; it elevates them. Applied well, AI sharpens the fundamentals of effective communication: diagnosing issues, shaping the narrative, guiding leaders, and delivering messages that connect people to purpose and progress. At its best, AI accelerates drafting, adapts content for different formats, improves accessibility, and surfaces insights about what’s landing. Without governance, though, it can create noise or risk. The opportunity for IC teams is to bring AI in thoughtfully, with governance and human judgment at the center. This guide shows how to do exactly that. Inside, you’ll find practical guidance on when to use AI, where humans remain essential, how to establish guardrails, how to prompt effectively, and how to scale AI responsibly across channels and teams.
