This is a hands-on companion guide to a previous Poppulo white paper where we explored The Role of Employee Communication in the Digital Workplace.
In a related guide, we looked at the essential steps to communicate a new digital workplace and we highlighted how imperative it is for Internal Comms, IT and HR to be aligned in those communications to employees if it's to be successful.
In our latest guide here, we draw on the learnings and expertise of two senior-level experts – Larraine Solomon, former Global VP of Internal Communications, Employee Engagement & Change at Monster, and Emma Ringwood, former Group L&D Manager at Vodafone Group – who share their stories and approaches to implementing a digital workplace.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is inescapable these days. You’ve no doubt heard a ton of noise around what AI—specifically generative AI—means for the future of work. Tools like ChatGPT for text generation and Midjourney for image generation are changing the way that people do their jobs.
Employee communications teams face several barriers that hold them back from making decisions on how to effectively reach their employees. Many of these barriers can be tied back to human behavior, the expectations of employees today, uncertainty in business, limited resources, and the fear of messing up. And often, these barriers prevent communicators from making the right decisions about communications strategy—or even making any decision at all.
