Technology leaders today have enormous opportunities to shape the success of the companies they work for, from delighting customers to growing revenue and contributing to the creation of a healthy workplace.
But to do that successfully, however, requires more than just technical expertise. The best technology leaders have mastered the art of effectively communicating both the vision and the ongoing program implementation activities to employees throughout the organization that is impacted by these changes – and, through them, to partners and customers.
However, effectively communicating during initiatives that involve behavioral change is one where many technology leaders have limited experience. In most project implementation models, communication is often a line item consisting of a few emails and a training session or two.
This whitepaper is designed to help you as a technology professional understand the communication-related causes of change initiative failures and develop strategies to address them. Mastering this will help you more successfully deliver the business benefits of technology to your company and accelerate your own career growth.

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.
