Episode 78 – Comms with courage

This week on The Internal Comms Podcast, host Katie Macaulay welcomes Audacity’s Jason Anthoine. Jason has spent three decades working in internal communication, employee experience and culture change, and has a refreshing take on the profession. Jason says on his company website: “I do one thing: I help companies inform, involve and inspire their employees.” It’s what every internal comms practitioner is seeking to do successfully, and Jason certainly has the creds to back it up. This conversation gets to the heart of what it really takes to be an effective communicator. “I’m not in the comms business, I’m in the courage business”, says Jason, and courage is central to the chat. Katie and Jason discuss the power of bravery and being bold in driving your internal communications career forward. Come for the huge amount of expertise, stay for the warmth, the jokes and the anecdotes that will really get you thinking. We hope you enjoy this latest episode.

Call it a shift. Call it a revolution. Whatever name you give it, it’s clear internal communications is no longer the poor cousin in the media family tree. At a time when your organisation’s products and services can seemingly be replicated at the touch of a button, the one thing that is hardest to copy – your organisation’s collective wisdom – is fast becoming its most important asset. In one of the UK’s first internal communications podcasts, Katie Macaulay sits down with IC thought-leaders every other Wednesday to better understand how we can improve communications at work. After all, it’s what’s inside that counts.
