A range: large group town hall meetings twice a year to update on big changes, ‘lets talk’ meetings in a large scale where leaders answer questions, commonly video messaging is used with senior leaders giving key messages, intranet pages are set up with content links and to find our more info

A. Communication Channel: Intranet, email, kickoff meeting, Townhall meeting, regular meeting, etc.
B. Townhall meeting and intranet is highly effective to communicate the change with staffs and stakeholders as it can reach majority of people at the short period of time at the beginning. And afterwards, regular meeting is also necessary to follow up any actions required.

A: Video; intranet; town hall; newsletter; email: group meetings
B: Town halls seem to work well as you get interactions with leaders -
Townhalls, weekly videos, teams, yammer.

A. we use all types of channels, adjusting to the target audience. These include: meetings (town halls, all hands, workshops), email notifications/newsletters, Yammer/Teams posts, Intranet Pages / SharePoint sites.
B. Usually, all hands meetings are great, as long as they are well managed. If change is not properly communicated, employees may use these meetings to complain more than to listen and ask proper questions -

A) A wide range. During Covid there was IM groups (Teams), Social media (WhatsApp), 1-1 calls, “Social” video calls, small meetups in person (when allowed), weekly whole firm calls, emails and newsletters. Post covid, a lot has remained though frequency has changed and in-person/ physical has ramped up.
B) The range of channels worked very well. Also the mix of content and tone, and speakers.

A range of channels and methods are used to communicate change – where it has impacted the wider organisation it usually involves town hall meetings, or change announced at annual events, with smaller sessions in person or over MS Teams to follow. Info is usually shared on the intranet or social channels like Yammer and or a monitored chat channel on MS Teams.
A combinations of channels and people involved in the message delivery seems to work best depending on scale of change and groups impacted. For external customers and suppliers written comms tends to go out first, before any opportunity for any in person or digital f-f communication. This seems to work better and usually has answers to anticipated FAQs to manage any anxiety.

Emails for when there are multiple points to convey that need time to digest.
Business updates monthly which give everyone an opportunity to ask questions and hear about any change face to face – usually followed by a social event that can allow for 1-1 conversations.
Non-hierarchical structures mean that 1-1s with seniors are not hard to arrange and are well received,
