Smarter Signage Strategies for Higher Ed –
Join the Session!GUIDES
The way we work, where we work, and how we work has fundamentally changed, with organizations now built around more scattered workforces than ever before.
In this fragmented, increasingly dispersed world of work, the glue that holds everything together, the oil that is critical to the smooth running of every aspect of the organization is clear, timely, and effective internal communication.
But for internal communications to be effective they must have a laser strategic focus on being employee-centric and achieving business goals. If not, they will fail.
This whitepaper is designed to help you achieve these imperatives by guiding you through the steps you need to take to build and execute the IC strategy your organization needs.

Comms professionals are feeling uneasy about AI. For some, the ease with which it generates content raises questions about the future of communication roles. While most communicators now use it regularly for drafting messages, creating images and brainstorming, the real opportunity lies beyond. To stay irreplaceable we need a bigger shift: from using AI tactically to using it strategically. Used wisely, AI can free us from time-consuming drudgery for higher-value work such as audience insight, creativity, strategic advice and building trust with stakeholders. Often lacking purpose-built tools or big budgets, Internal Communicators may find AI is the breakthrough they have been waiting for, but only if we act now! In this thought-provoking and practical session, Megan Thomas from Buzz Communications will share her AI Skill-Building Framework for Communication Professionals. Based on more than five years of AI experience and research, the framework is the first of its kind, highlighting the skill gaps, risks and opportunities that will define the profession’s future. You will leave with clear actions to strengthen your role and demonstrate the value of Internal Communication in an AI-driven world. Key Takeaways: Why communicators face a now-or-never moment with AI. How to spot AI “tells” and avoid the risk of being replaced. The six AI competencies every communicator must build: from strategy to ethics, data and change leadership. How to use AI to create a more fulfilling and fun career.
Email remains the heartbeat of internal communication. But too often, employee inboxes are overloaded with messages that miss the mark: ignored, skimmed, or quickly forgotten.

Andrew Hubbard will share strategies shaped by his communications work at Poppulo and learnings from partnerships with many of the world’s most successful companies — as well as his senior comms experience at Rolls-Royce, Santander, and National Grid.
