What do I tell
my team?
I don't see how this change
affects me.
My team is not showing up professionally in front of clients or executives.
I don't understand why you are asking me to do this.
Why isn't anyone reading my emails?
I'm too nervous
to give this presentation.
That's not what I asked for.
Please re-do it.
Why doesn't my team 'get it'?
I thought we already
went over that.
Ineffective workplace communication
gets your company stuck:
"We need to communicate more."
Maybe. Maybe not.
Ineffective communication costs US companies an estimated $12,506 per employee per year.*
We help you chip away at that number.
And we can show you the business impact in dollars and an ROI percentage to go with it.
Workshops, e-learning, and follow-up that checks what changed.
Most comms training ends when the room empties. Feedback scores come back high and nobody checks whether a single conversation went differently the following week. We do.

A plant manager took an INSIDE COMMS workshop.
His facility went from behind schedule to on time.
"When I took the course, our plant was two days behind our target run rate. Now we are caught up. The communication course helped me to communicate the urgency and importance of the situation to the team, which was the catalyst needed for us to solve the issues holding us back."
Plant manager, industrial services company.

A global company worked with INSIDE COMMS to successfully integrate two acquired companies simultaneously.
"INSIDE COMMS was an instrumental communications partner in our work to integrate two multi-country, multi-lingual entrepreneurial companies into our global corporate structure. They offered a full suite of strategic planning and counsel to our transition management and business leaders, as well as day-to-day communications implementation and structure. I put them on our short-list of preferred vendors.
