Influencing the organization with internal comms metrics
In 2023, internal communicators have a big opportunity to influence business change, with 83% reporting growing influence among the c-suite according to Gartner. But to bring real value to discussions, internal comms needs to solve the longstanding problem of turning data into insights. We’ve partnered with the Institute of Internal Communication to show you how to use your metrics to influence change in your organization.
Escaping the employee engagement trap
With the workplace still in a state of flux, and following a year of mass-resignations, understanding what it takes to engage and retain employees has become a key focus for enterprise leaders. Organizations are turning to their internal comms teams, asking for real-time feedback on employee engagement levels and evidence of how their strategies are making an impact. What do our employees need to be engaged and how can we justify our assertions?
More than ever, internal comms are being asked to become data analysts. In this webinar we go back to basics on engagement metrics, starting with the question: what do we even mean by engagement?
In partnership with The Institute of Internal Communications, we dug into the most important metrics internal communicators need to elevate the conversations they’re having with business leaders and shape organizational change.
On the agenda
This webinar focuses on how you can best use and understand the metrics you have to hand, to turn data into actionable insights, covering:
- Where employee engagement metrics went wrong: What should we really be measuring?
- Going back to the basics: Resetting our employee engagement mindset and looking into alternative areas to find the right metrics
- Who needs what: Serving up the right metrics to the right leaders
