Deskless workers are the backbone of essential industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, retail, transportation, and other sectors that play a key role in supporting the global economy.
Despite making up 80% of the global workforce, deskless employees are often overlooked when it comes to receiving the necessary tools and support to successfully do their jobs— and to help them feel engaged and integral to their company.
And since many don’t have access to devices such as laptops and cell phones while they’re on the job, they simply don’t receive the critical information they need to get work done.
But when the pandemic slowed the world down and forced many desk workers to work remotely, it highlighted the importance of these frontline workers and made it clear that it was time for companies to invest in technology to support, communicate with, and engage this critical segment of the workforce.
In this executive brief, we explore the key takeaways from the Poppulo webinar with Ann Melinger, CEO of Brilliant Ink: Reaching the Unreachable: Why It’s Time to Connect With Your Hard-to-Reach Employees.

Securing leadership support for internal communication initiatives can often feel like an uphill battle. Many communications professionals find it challenging to get executives to recognize the value of effective internal comms, making it difficult to drive engagement and alignment across the organization. But with the right strategies, communicators can bridge this gap and bring leadership on board, securing extra support and resources.
Internal communicators are at the heart of their organizations, connecting all the dots, bringing cohesion to whatever chaos the world introduces, and ultimately moving their companies forward. Simply put, IC is crucial, and therefore, communicators are constantly busy. In that rush to ensure effective employee communications, we've found that communicators are spending less time thinking strategically about their own careers. That's why we want to set aside time to talk about how to advance your career in IC—while at the same time ensuring the steps you take are beneficial for your organization.
