Internal comms plan: How and what the company is communicating. Typically
one plan per topic/campaign. You need a structured approach to connect desired
business outcomes with effective, relevant activities and tactics and it should be
linked to the goals of your business. Think about the desired behaviours first
(what you want employees to think/feel/do/say differently) before choosing
channels. IC plans should include information such as strategy, tactics,
channels/methods of communication, measurement, budget, audiences,
timescales, key messages and sensitivities.
Key message: Your key message could also be called a take-away. Its the
most important piece or pieces of information that you wish to convey through
your communication. Common practice is to have no more than three key
messages as any more than that is difficult to remember.
Paid media: Channels you pay to leverage paid search, display ads, sponsored
tweets, etc.
ROI: Return on investment. Phrase given to the proof that something is worth
putting time, money and effort into.
Channels youve outlined what youre trying to achieve, here you detail the
communication channels/methods you will use and when. Ensure you have
effective feedback mechanisms and two-way channels in place for employees to
have their voices heard and views acted upon.
Timeline this is useful to ensure your strategy gets underway, it helps outlines
expectations all round and is mindful of any key dates or events.
Measurement how the strategy will define and measure success. Should
include what success looks like and what the next steps are. This can include
updating the strategy at defined periods or reviewing the measurement you put
in place at regular intervals.
