Last changed on Mon, 2018-09-24 05:17

Have a big employee communication challenge, but a limited budget? Need to jump start an internal communication program, but don’t want a long-term commitment? Davis & Company has a quick, proven solution for you. We’ll provide you with the smart thinking we’re known for, but at a price and scope that fits your needs.

Build employee communication skills

Your team has an important internal communication role, so you need every team member to be knowledgeable about leading practices. But going to big conferences isn’t cutting it—team members come back with interesting concepts, but aren’t sure how to use them to take your employee communication program to the next level.

Build a better survey

You’re committed to surveying employees to gain their feedback about internal communication. But you’re not an expert, so you worry that your draft survey questionnaire won’t generate the data you need to measure your current program and make meaningful improvements.

Conduct insightful focus groups

You’re well aware of the importance of reaching out to employees and getting feedback, and you know that focus groups are an efficient qualitative research tool. But you don’t have much experience holding focus groups, and you need this effort to be a success.

Develop a communication program

You’ve got a complicated problem to solve and little time to address it. And it would be great to pick an employee communication expert’s brain to get smart advice you can act on immediately.

Plan a big meeting

Your organization makes a significant investment in leadership conferences and big group sessions, but you struggle to create meetings that are meaningful and memorable. There are so many moving parts and so many cooks in the kitchen that, far too often, meetings devolve into an endless series of boring PowerPoint presentations.

Revitalize town halls

You and your team spend a lot of time planning and managing town hall meetings. Although employees appreciate the opportunity to hear from leaders, you struggle to make town halls as interactive, dynamic and motivational as you know they can be.

Revamp communication channels

One of your pivotal communication vehicles—for example, a newsletter, all-employee email, intranet site or digital screen system—needs improvement. And you’d love some advice from expert consultants, writers and designers about the best ways to give your channel a refresh.

Ask the expert

You’re smart and experienced, but sometimes you wish you could just get some quick advice on a challenge you face—the consulting equivalent of “phone a friend.”

Create a communication plan

You know that having a strong communication plan is essential for setting priorities, getting buy-in from key stakeholders and positioning yourself as strategist. But your workload is so intense that you don’t have the time or the mental bandwidth to develop a plan.
