Buzzwords, trendy phrases and annoying jargon come and go, and sometimes it's too easy to dismiss what's real and significant as something that will have its 15 minutes of fame before thankfully fading away.
And whatever about annoying jargon, 'social amplification' and the 'digital workplace' certainly qualify as being buzzword phrases that are hard to avoid these days. But, of course, they are much more significant than that, and they're not going to fade away anytime soon. In a highly engaging Poppulo webinar, Digital Workplace - How to turn employees into fans, Jonathan Phillips, cuts through the noise surrounding both subjects with great insight and clarity.
He brings a refreshingly articulate definition as to what the digital workplace actually is, and leaves no doubt whatsoever about the potential that exists for companies to tap into the enormous power of their employees' social media activity through social amplification.
The data he uses to underpin the power of social amplification is powerful and memorable, illustrating the immensity of a company's potential audience reach and impact through their employees' social networks rather than the company's own channels.
As Jonathan says, that is the power of amplification.
We've collated the main points from his webinar into these Top Tips and we hope you find it useful - and if you do, we would be delighted if you gave it some social amplification!

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.
