Internal marketing is more than building the internal brand it is a powerful tool
to help change behaviour. By encouraging employees to have a clear vision for the
future and take ownership of organisational values, new attitudes and behaviours
will be reinforced that will achieve long lasting cultural change.
Our approach places behavioural change before all else. We use effective behavioural
change techniques drawn from Viral Change (TM), neuro-linguistic programming,
somatic intelligence and cognitive behavioural science. Time again, these techniques
bring about behavioural change faster, more effectively, in a more inclusive way
that wins the hearts and minds of people. It is certainly long lasting.
Internal communication programmes will support this by helping to build a community
of people who are on the same page, motivated to move in the same direction and
who have a great sense of being connected together in a worthwhile enterprise.
We take a
multi channel approach to internal communication and champion a grass
roots level approach by encouraging employees to get directly involved.
This brings measurable bottom line benefits: the cultural change that is achieved
will see your organisation move to new ways of being and doing and your employees
will be more engaged and less stressed in the process. Engaged employees lead to
customer loyalty. For example, Sears, Canada found that for every 5% increase in
employee loyalty, they saw a 1% increase in customer loyalty and a 3.4%
increase in EBIT.
