Change is hard – possibly the greatest leadership challenge. Despite that, there is a process, and we have extensive experience in the communications involved. It starts at the top and then, for some, it’s motivating teams. From there it can extend to being customer-focused, or the hard work of community engagement. We study, research and constantly discuss what is genuine change versus the latest ‘bright shiny toy’, to ensure we, and our clients, stay ahead.
