I’m super happy to share the second part of our strategy talk about internal corporate communication strategy. With this interview part, we focused on today’s shortcomings many companies have in the field of corporate communication and related strategy. However, I also provide very practical advice on how to improve. I do hope the strategy talk…
Employee motivation and a proper employee motivation strategy is probably a company’s biggest asset. A highly motivated team that’s ready to rock’n’roll can outperform competitors that seem unbeatable on a fact sheet. Money, market position, or brand — that are all crucial factors indeed. But nothing comes close to motivation. And I know, I’m not…
I recently stumbled upon an article that talks about the key to corporate communication. Although from 2017 and not that lengthy, the text, that was published on DigitalSignageToday.com, attracted many people on social networks. And I have to say that the headline caught my attention. Not because I was curious but because I thought this…
With COVID-19 impacting many businesses and particularly their processes and organization, many companies face new challenges. First and foremost, many companies have to adapt to lockdowns, remote working, and new working models. Accordingly, the question “how to improve employee engagement” during the pandemic and post-COVID times drives many managers. Apparently, employee engagement is probably an…
Employee communication rapidly jumped back on the agenda of many companies in March 2020.

Corona was the final punch. Home office, de-centralized working, and a hunger for information accelerated that progress immensely. However, that last months provide one super essential lesson…
Personally, I am genuinely convinced that employee motivation —still— is #1 key to a successful business. Moreover, I’m super-convinced that the combination of content management and corporate communication holds such a massive potential to drive employees’ motivation. Although totally underrated by (many) companies, I consider that as a unique possibility to create knowledge, drive efficiency,…
I know, the title of this blog post is a bold statement. It probably sounds kind of weird in the beginning. Moreover, I guess the first thing that comes to your mind is something like: What the heck has Facebook to do with a business intelligence (BI) dashboard? Of course, we are talking about two…
What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you think about social media in a business context? I guess it’s sales and marketing, right? Indeed, the number of people who mention Enterprise Content Management is super low. Probably the amount of people is equal to the polar bear population in the Antarctic. Actually,…
I genuinely believe that we have to change the way we discuss enterprise content management. We have to move from purely content-based to a “getting-the-attention” discussion. Let me explain that step-by-step. When talking to colleagues from companies —regardless of their business department, role, and position— everyone agrees on the fact that the technological world is…
In my discussions about social media with airlines, most of the colleagues solely think about marketing and customer. This isn’t wrong.
