There’s no doubt that we’re living in a unique time, a time when people are reporting increasing feelings of isolation, loneliness, and frustration. For many, work is a respite from the difficulties of the greater world, but it can also be a source of stress. How can leaders communicate with their employees to bring them into the fold rather than push them out?
Just a few years ago, leaders could hold a company retreat, bringing everyone together in person. But today, people are working in different environments and from different places. In this environment, inclusive communication is essential. Not only do company leaders need to tell employees what’s going on, but they also need to make sure their leadership & communication style bring everybody in and leave nobody out.
In this executive brief, which is based on a Poppulo Bootcamp Presentation by René Carayol MBE, an Executive Coach and CEO Advisor, we explore how leaders can create an inclusive culture for their employees through the use of inclusive communication.

In recent years, employee communicators have taken center stage, navigating through periods of uncertainty and redefining the employee experience in an era where the traditional “workplace” is evolving rapidly.
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.
