Technology professionals: Want to really impact the business? Communicate like a pro!

About this Whitepaper

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.

How Leading Professional Services Firms Are Modernizing the Employee Experience

In most professional services firms, information is scattered, and valuable time is wasted trying to find it. Company news, policies, business updates, key documents—all in different places, and rarely in the first place you look. Now there's real risk on top of wasted time. Clients are questioning the value of professional advice at the same time AI is raising the stakes on quality and accuracy. As employees increasingly use AI to accelerate their work, firms need to ensure people are working from approved content, trusted knowledge, and the latest policies—not outdated or unofficial information. Keeping people aligned on standards, governance, and current policy is now part of how a firm can protect what it's spent years building. Join us to see how leading firms are building a modern digital workplace that gives employees one personalized place to find company news, documents, policies, people, and business applications—and see what's happening across the wider firm, so they spend less time searching and more time delivering work that clients trust. What you'll learn During this session, we'll show how professional services firms: Give employees a single place to find news, knowledge, policies, applications, and everyday resources. Keep people aligned on the standards, governance, and quality expectations that protect client work. Reach employees wherever they work, across mobile, Microsoft Teams, and digital signage. Make sure people receive only what's relevant to their role, office, or practice area, in their preferred language. Confirm critical updates are seen and acknowledged, with must-read communications and reporting. Connect colleagues across offices and practices, so local teams see the wider firm without losing their own focus. Use AI to help employees find the right policy, procedure, or precedent in seconds. Integrate with Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365, so communications and knowledge sit inside the tools people already use. Measure real engagement and reach, not just publishing activity.

How Leading Healthcare Organizations Reach Every Frontline Worker

Ask a hospital's communications team whether last week's safety alert reached every person who needed it—nurses, care assistants, porters, techs, cleaners, kitchen staff—and most can't tell you. The message went out, but who read it is guesswork. That blind spot is the real problem, and it starts with the staff. Most of the people keeping a hospital running have no company email and no desk, so an update reaches them through a manager who remembers to pass it on—or it doesn't reach them at all. When that message is a changed protocol or updated equipment guidance, a missed message is a patient-safety risk you never see. What you'll learn During this session, we'll show how healthcare organizations: Reach every clinical and support worker across hospitals, clinics, home visits, and community sites, without relying on email or a shared device. Deliver shift-relevant safety and compliance alerts with read tracking and must-read acknowledgment. Personalize communications by role, location, shift, and language, so people get only what's relevant to them. Use AI to help staff find the right policy or procedure in seconds. Replace scattered, manager-by-manager messaging with communications every employee receives, whatever their shift or location. Support wellbeing and recognition programs that help retain people in demanding roles. Let ward and department leaders communicate locally while central teams keep governance intact. See who opened and acknowledged each critical message. Join us at 10am ET | 3pm BST | 4pm CEST
