We’re not here to give comms another job, but… the role has radically changed over the last five years alone, and the impact it has on an organization is still ballooning:
- Org-wide mission, vision, values — communication
- All-hands goals, retreats, messages — communication
- Pitch decks, board updates — communication
- Strategic projects and key progress — communication
- Manager and employee skill building — communication
- Critical team feedback initiatives — communication
Comms is the heartbeat of an organization — from corp. comms, to CEO counsel, to owner of pretty much everything — and, more and more, a source of its strategy and growth.
Watch our conversation between two leaders who have seen the impact comms can have on defining an organization’s competitive advantage moving its business forward:
- 📣 Gemma Hart, Danone North America SVP and Head of Corporate Affairs. She spent 13 years at Brunswick Group consulting on Consumer Packaged Goods, co-leading their global Change Management practice, and eventually being Partner. She spent three years as CCO at Anheuser-Busch and now heads Danone communications and public affairs.
- 📣 Roy Schwartz, Axios HQ CEO. He was a Partner at Gallup, CRO at Politico, and a co-founder of Axios. Now, at Axios HQ, leads the teams working with organizations big and small to elevate the impact of their workplace communications.
