Internal Communications
Sometimes the easiest audience to forget is the one closest to you - your employees, your members or your business partners.
Best practice in internal communications is about ensuring that you have the structures, mechanisms and policies in place to allow an efficient, timely and targeted flow of relevant information around your organisation. It means that you have a means of communicating with your staff as easily and well in a crisis as on a day to day basis. it makes sure that your employees never feel exposed and uninformed, reading about what is happening in their organisation in the morning papers before they hear it from you.
