corporate communication
nice looks, familiar feelbut no improved control, let alone a reduced amount of communication
communication should support organizations to WIN
employees share real-time information, effectively deliver and receive information within teams and departments and
act to get things done
managers lead empowered
teams with fastest communication in the market,
trending topics, identify bottleneck resources
imagine
• After 2 weeks of holiday; all your ACTIONS available through one click; instead of scanning 100s of mails

• No internal cc mails
acting, faster and more effective
