survey findings
86% of internal communication professionals agreed that internal communications has the primary focus of aligning people with the organisation’s purpose and strategy.
But just 49% agree that they have access to the tools and resources they need to develop high-quality internal communications and only 35% say that they have access to the budget needed to develop and implement an effective internal communications strategy.
In addition 64% of senior internal communication practitioners say that barriers such as organisational hierarchies and bureaucracy strongly affect the effectiveness of internal communications.
The report also discusses the effectiveness of internal communications when aligned with the organisation’s strategy and how research and measurement can help overcome some of the challenges identified.
