The following example has been filled in with basic information to demonstrate how the template should be used. Keep in mind that each organization and situation is different. Based on the complexity of your organization, you may have many more employees and communication needs and changes will be different based on what you are specifically communicating. The key is to have a master employee template to get you in the habit of considering all possibilities.
As with most communication plans, really take the time to identify ALL of your employees, not just those returning from remotely working from home.

In today’s competitive business landscape, it’s increasingly important to showcase the impact and value of internal communication efforts. IC teams that use data-driven strategies can ensure their communications contribute to business success—and, most importantly, that they have the proof to back it up.
It’s time for a strategic communications reset. Strategic focus is key to company success, yet half of internal comms executives say they don’t strategize to deliver their top priorities.
The debate over the return to the office remains divided, with opinions on whether to return—or in what capacity to return—split across the board. Regardless of whether the return is mandatory or voluntary, it will be doomed if the office experience is subpar. If the in-person environment fails to meet employees’ needs and expectations, it will inevitably lead to low morale and poor engagement, making it difficult to retain and attract top talent.
