By driving a bottom-up movement? Using communications and storytelling to drive buy-in.
This was what I talked about at the Institute of Internal Communicationโs Change Communication conference last month.
Cos hereโs the thing. There are currently two forces collidingโฆ
โก๏ธ On one sideโฆ.. change is compounding.
70% of transformations already fail to meet their original goals.
Fatigue has well and truly set in. ๐ฎโ๐จ
โก๏ธ On the other sideโฆ..
Thereโs an AI explosion happening! ๐ค๐ฅ
Soooโฆ are you thinking what Iโm thinking?๐ค
Also, hereโs what Iโm hearing.
The key differentiator between those who fail and those who succeed at AI transformation isโฆ
โฆ agility.

The problem isโฆ organisational agility is hard.
And shifting leadership mindsets is even harder.

๐ฏ Letโs drive a bottom-up movement by closing the alignment gaps that slow change. Hereโs how. By:
โก๏ธWorking with leadership to spot comms gaps early and aligning teams quickly – because there are gaps.
โก๏ธUsing storytelling to spread agility across more teams – and support organisational agility.
โก๏ธMaking the change meaningful so people understand it – so they believe in it and act.
But it has to start with us:
โ
Our agility
โ
Our mindset
โ
Our ways of working.

Here’s a thought, what if internal communicators drove a part in organisational agility? ๐ก
