The Maximus Story: Aligning Internal Comms with the Workplace Experience

About this Whitepaper

As a global 36,000-person services provider specializing in managing government-sponsored programs, Maximus has always understood that employee communication is critical to success. But throughout their comms journey, they’ve faced challenges related to communicating with its diverse, global workforce, as well as sharing information throughout the pandemic and finding ways to prove the value of investing in comms.

Over time, the Internal Communications (IC) team—led by Jared Curtis, Director of Communications—has overcome these challenges with Poppulo Harmony.

By leveraging the full capabilities of the Harmony platform, the team has continued to innovate and integrate internal comms with a broader workplace experience initiative.

In this guide, we explore how Maximus achieved communications success, plus how they linked comms with business initiatives to deliver value across the organization.

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.
