About this Guide

Connecting and engaging desk-based office workers is hard enough, but what about manufacturing and other hard-to-reach employees? How do you engage workers who spend their time on the factory floor or production line, disconnected from mainstream internal comms channels?

Kyle Gillis faced that challenge with Magna International. He takes us through his experience of using social media to engage disconnected workers in a global manufacturing corporation with 172,000 employees at 400 locations in 28 countries.

The AI Toolkit for Internal Communications

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.
