  • New Year, Same Challenge: The Business Case for Internal Communications
    Dec 29 2025

    Internal communications is not about messages.

    It’s about alignment.

    In this episode, Chris Willis talks with Keith Berman about how internal communications creates real business impact, even when attribution is messy. They unpack why alignment drives retention, productivity, and customer experience, how communicators act as the connective tissue of the business, and what leaders actually listen for when evaluating ROI.

    They also tackle AI. What it helps with. What it cannot replace. And why the hype cycle feels familiar to anyone who lived through the early 5G promises.

    For communicators who want to prove value, not volume.

  • Frontline Comms: Your Unfair Advantage or Your Silent Killer
    Oct 16 2025

    The people closest to your customers are often the last to know what’s happening inside your business and it’s costing you.

    In this episode, Chris Willis sits down with Victoria Dew, CEO of Dewpoint Communications and author of the new report Connecting the Frontline, to explore why organizations still struggle to reach and engage their frontline workers.

    They unpack:

    • The urgent workforce crisis in skilled trades and essential industries
    • Why 72% of frontline employees don’t understand company strategy and what that really means
    • How trust is built through listening, not broadcasting
    • The difference between information and meaning
    • And why frontline comms are either your company’s unfair advantage… or its silent killer

    Whether you lead communications, HR, or operations, this one’s for anyone who believes your people are your brand.

    🎧 Listen now and start rethinking how your strategy reaches the people who make it real.
