Overview

With many public sector organisations adopting the hybrid workplace model, it is essential that internal communication is aligned with this new way of working.

Given that internal communication is now more important than ever, with your organisation having office and remote working based staff, it is imperative that communication with all of your staff is consistent to avoid misunderstanding of key information, team members feeling uninformed and even sometimes left out.
