This document discusses internal communications in organizations. It defines internal communications as communications among employees within an organization. It then discusses different types of internal communication tools like email, instant messaging, meetings, newsletters, intranets, and video conferencing. It notes that there is no one-size-fits-all approach. The goals of internal communications are to ensure employees are working towards common goals, develop a cohesive culture, empower employees, show appreciation for employees, and create feedback channels. It also provides examples from different organizations on how they have effectively implemented various internal communication strategies and tools.
With a greater number of people telecommuting to work, it’s becoming more vital to train them to be successful in a virtual work environment. Disconnectedness is easy in the virtual realm, especially when good virtual practices aren’t in place. Companies need to help employees find ways to make “virtual substitutions” so they can accomplish what they normally would in face-to-face interactions. Learn how to develop your company’s virtual presence so that anyone, no matter where in the world they are, feels like a connected and valued employee.

Join us as we run through this mini-case study on Slack and how AIGA converted over 600 chapter leaders to using this new communication tool. We’ll cover implementation, adoption, benefits and challenges.

Chapter Events: Deciding on In-Person, Hybrid, or VirtualBillhighway
What’s the outlook for in-person chapter events in 2021 and how do we help chapter leaders decide whether to host an in-person, hybrid, or virtual event?
For nearly a year, CRPs and chapter leaders have focused on virtual. As the vaccine rolls out across the country, the focus is shifting to when chapters can resume in-person meetings (and indeed some already have). But should chapters plan on in-person meetings this year? Can they provide a safe experience? Will members be ready? What about hybrid—the word on everyone’s mind? Is that a viable possibility?
Like you, we had more questions than answers so we tapped one of the brightest minds we know on association and chapter events. Join us as we provide expert advice on how to help chapters make the right event decisions.

Sharing Members: Optimizing the National and Chapters IntersectionBillhighway
From the member’s perspective, the line between “chapter” and National is blurred. Let’s look at how we can tap the opportunity this presents through a process designed to examine the member experience from their viewpoint. We’ll be working to walk through how to start mapping out your members’ experiences to find the overlap – the opportunity – between National and local, we’ll get you thinking about your members and answering key questions. Where does your National and chapter experiences begin and end? Where do they meet in the middle? And who is best positioned to own and optimize a specific experience?
Have you ever been blindsided by the departure of a good team member? Have you had team issues boil over and affect long-term chemistry? Or, conversely, have you seen the positive momentum of a team with purpose and alignment between their interests and their roles and responsibilities?
Tips on Building a Speakers Bureau for ChaptersBillhighway
Offering effective speakers who can discuss timely, industry-relevant topics helps increase chapter engagement while driving wider awareness of your association. In this webinar, we’ll provide examples of how other associations have built their speakers bureaus, including how they’ve driven adoption. In addition, we’ll discuss the various resources available to chapters that want to build their own speakers bureau.
I presented these slides at the Social Connections VII conference in Stockholm 13 November 2014, a conference arranged by the IBM Connections User Group, but sponsored by IBM as well as by local and international Partners of IBM.
The topic is about how, during a social intranet adoption project for a client in China, I became painfully aware how my (our?) methods and tools were built on assumptions of a certain corporate culture which was not what I faced at my Chinese client. I had to reconsider the mix and emphasis of tools as well as their design.
This presentation summarizes my lessons learned. I hope they can be of use for you too

Mentoring programs have become mainstream. About 70% of Fortune 500 companies have one. A Harvard Business Review study of 30 professional firms found that, in a hypercompetitive world, it is easy for mentoring programs to become stale and bureaucratic. Mentoring can have positive impacts in terms of job satisfaction, organisational commitment, and even career progression. In this presentation, I explain how mentoring mentoring influences both career progression and salary. Of course many of these findings depend on the specific type of mentoring and institution, but positive effects are clear. Kindly contact me (WA: +233550157572 ) if need support to design a mentoring initiative in your workplace.
What's Next: Using technology to engage employees and build businessesOgilvy Consulting
Never before has technology been such an enabler for people and teams as it has since the COVID-19 crisis. While remote working is not new for many organisations, the extent and time is, which businesses are anticipating workforces to be completely virtual. How people engage virtually with each other sits at the heart of business recovery and future business continuity planning.
Agile speaks of putting people first; however in my experience, people are the poor stepchild to process and tools. It’s not about getting scrum teams “more agile” it’s about shaping the organization's culture to support agile development. It’s necessary to understand the areas needed to create a culture that supports agile development. We have to wonder, are we asking ourselves the right questions? How do we engage our staff to create an agile workforce? How do we hire the right people? What is a manager's role in this new self-organized culture? How do we motivate those people? How do we connect them with the customer? It’s about embodying the spirit of agility to get all the magic of a startup and scaling that across a large organization.
In this session, we will talk about building your organization’s culture to support scaling organizational agility to keep the team passionate and purposeful.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.
