Last year it was reported that there were record numbers of over 50’s in work across the UK. This coupled with the fact women over 50 represent one of the fastest growing segments of the workforce, means there are very few organisations where the menopause is not being experienced by staff. With a recruitment market […]

Feeling unprepared for how AI will impact your communications and culture? You’re not alone. At the recent Blue Goose Briefing event, ‘AI:Friend or foe?’ there was a shared sense of organisations not being ready for the impact AI will make – both positive and negative. Saying that, there was also optimism about what could happen […]
Nearly four years ago, in the height of the first lockdown, we wrote about how the pandemic might just have been one of the best things to happen to employee engagement. Coined ‘The Empathy Revolution’, it encompassed the (almost instantaneous) movement of employers, who were thrust into generational changes to ways of working overnight, with […]

The ‘employee experience’ can be seen to exist in a number of ways. Firstly, as something that just ‘is’. You join a place of work on the back of a job offer, probable role specifics and supplementary ‘package’. The ‘experience’ is all the other random things that happen, combined. Alternatively, we can view the employee […]

You’ve probably heard the rumours: purpose matters more than ever before. Gen Zers won’t get out of bed and certainly won’t join an organisation until they see, hear and feel it. But what does that mean for the financial industry, one that might not traditionally have been thought of as the most purpose-led? Is there […]

You probably know the rumours: purpose matters more than ever before. Gen Zers won’t get out of bed without a purpose, and certainly won’t join an organisation until they see, hear and feel it for themselves. Some may argue nothing’s really changed – employees have always wanted to see the (social) value in their work. […]

What’s the single thing communications professionals worry about the most? I’d hazard, impact – if the things they’re producing, sending and socialising are actually making any difference. And with it, measurement – how to quantity and prove that change is actually taking place. Next question: what’s the single thing that receives the least attention and […]

As organisations try to embed hybrid working models at the same time as improve their performance on diversity and inclusion, it’s interesting to consider the extent to which one can enable the other – how hybrid working might support minoritised groups. In a recent McKinsey study, we see that many minoritised groups share a higher-than-average […]
