Humans have an innate need to connect—to be part of communities where shared objectives are driven by purpose, meaning, and relevance.
We get that.
As a team, we deliver human-centric communication solutions that support understanding, inspire greater connection, and cultivate genuine engagement with you, and with the rewards programs you make available.
Yes, we write newsletters and annual reports, and we really love to deliver a powerful annual benefits enrollment bulletin. Communication doesn’t always need to be a big strategic undertaking.
But, it does need to be rooted in your objectives, what you’re ultimately trying to achieve, and how you want people to feel. We can help.
Communication strategies that are purpose-driven, pragmatic, and visionary
When we think about communication strategies, we envision blueprints that forge strong bonds between your organizational mission, values, and people to drive successful business outcomes. It’s about connection!
- Whether it’s a large- (or small-) scale change, a new program for your people (or the same program revisited at a different time), or a rebrand, we design communication strategies that keep the engine of today running smoothly, while driving forward into the future.
- We also understand that there can be bumps along the way, so we ensure our strategies are nimble, flexible, and scalable to accommodate potential growth!
Memorable content that’s right for you, and your people
Do you know that feeling when someone you’ve met for only a moment actually remembers your name the next time you meet? Creating memorable content is kind of like that.
- We help you make your people feel special through communication that is tailored and relevant to them.
- Making memorable content can be as simple as finding the right tagline, or a theme song (“We Are Family!”), and using visuals to influence (positive) emotions, and/or evoke a reaction. It can all lead to success.
Empowerment to thrive amidst change
We’re storytellers. We make the complex simple. We inspire. We create intrigue. Most importantly, we help people feel safe, even amidst what might feel like constant change.
- Your people will thrive when they know what to expect and what is expected of them.
- More than that, they will appreciate the care you’ve taken to ensure they have the information, context, tools, and resources needed to make informed, thoughtful decisions.
Authentic creative that fits with the project, with the subject matter, and with you
Believe it or not, creativity is all about connection, too: when you feel connected, you do better – and you create better! It’s that simple.
- We work with the best of the best, who possess decades of experience designing in the people space (aka designing content related to benefits and rewards programs).
- A picture is still worth a thousand words – why use all the words when our designers are skilled at using clever design to replace them, enabling people to “see” how it all works? (illustrations are our jam!).
- Our geniuses know how to build websites that are beautiful, functional, and easy to navigate. They are user interface experts. We call them “how to delight users by making it super-easy to find what you’re looking for on the website” experts! And they’re part of our creative powerhouse, too.
Our research is about listening to you and your people (and sometimes your partners, as well)
- Not sure where or how to start? We’ll lead a workshop to gather and organize your thoughts and ideas.
- Are you curious? Bet your people are too. Let’s ask them! We survey– poll, pulse, short, long.
- Sometimes you need to listen as new ideas are introduced. We love to facilitate focus groups and “early adopters” programs that enable you access to their candor and opinions.
