It’s bolstered my confidence and equipped me to better advise and constructively challenge. As a result, I’m working more strategically and I’m much better placed to measure and demonstrate the value of internal communications.

I get a buzz from teaching as I like to explore new ideas and ways of working. I like to think big about PR, internal communication and employee engagement. I think you tend to always get what you’ve always got if you always do what you’ve always done. So teaching and learning is about thinking differently in ways that can be applied to better practice.
