Many of these examples are redacted or only described because of the nature of internal communications work. Look here for a breakdown of my skills and strengths.

 

Comms plans and playbooks

The first step in implementing an effective communications strategy is developing a thorough playbook to help align the team throughout a campaign or change. While I can’t share specific client playbooks and comms plans, my playbooks include items such as:

  • An intro that lays out the strategy and purpose behind the effort/campaign, the key stakeholders/audiences and a timeline of activities

  • Key messaging to guide comms and internal discussions

  • Leader talking points for leaders’ reference and shareable FAQ documents

  • The communications suite, which might include emails, survey questions, etc.

Across employers and clients

Editing for style, grammar and effectiveness has been an important, consistent part of every job I’ve had. I think in AP style and, as necessary, employers’ and clients’ house styles.
