#187 How to have better workplace conversations (even if they’re difficult) (ft. Noa Rein)

2026-09-1635:37

What makes a really good conversation? Not one where everyone agrees, or one where nobody feels uncomfortable, and definitely not one where everyone politely nods and moves on.

They unpack what happens when fear, uncertainty, polarisation and pressure cau...

#186 The importance of brand consistency in internal communications

2026-09-0912:28

When your employees hear the word “brand”, do they think about logos, colours and fonts.... or do they understand the bigger picture? Your brand is much more than the shiny stuff. It's your values, your voice, your language, your tone and what you want your organisation to be known for.

#183 Why do employees resist change, and how does communication reduce that resistance?

2026-08-1219:171

Employees aren’t actually 'resisting' change, they're giving you feedback. In this episode of Less Chatter, More Matter, we take a different look at one of the most frustrating parts of change: what happens when people don’t want to get on board. Rather than treating resistance as something communicators need to overcome, we explore what might be sitting underneath it from uncertainty and lack of control to poor communication, a lack of trust or simply the very human tendency to dislike being...
