It’s an increasingly problematic workplace communications conundrum: how to engage employees with company messaging when their lives are already swamped with information overload? Happily, there is a way through.
Poppulo research has shown that employees want company information that’s relevant to them and that helps them in their job. It also underlines the need for communicators to adopt a highly focused employee-centric approach to what they do – understanding what’s relevant to different internal audiences and the channel mix needed to reach and engage them.
The route to ensuring employees receive the information they need cannot be achieved through a single communication channel – it demands an integrated multi-channel approach with a depth of employee knowledge to create and deliver relevant content.
In this whitepaper, Joanna Hall outlines why this approach is the ultimate key to effective and engaging internal communications. She analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the various communication channels that are available.
The whitepaper paints a picture of what a great channel mix looks like – and spells out the steps you need to take to achieve this in your organization.

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.
