Drawing on the experience and wisdom of highly respected communication experts is a valuable source of inspiration for fellow employee comms professionals.

That is why we decided to ask eight distinguished IC experts a simple but significant question:

What was the best employee comms advice you ever gave a CEO or senior executive in your career, and why?

"AI in the wrong hands is dangerous. In the right hands, it can be beneficial to ALL." Feeling so fortunate to gain countless new insights on responsible AI from @JuliettePowell at #attune23! It's hard to ignore stats like these, right @priyabates? #ArtificialIntelligence

[Ann Melinger @annmelinger]

When launching a new employee communications channel, feature union leaders in your promotional materials - great way to build trust and early adoption. Excellent advice at #attune23!

[Meghan M. Biro ⚡️ @MeghanMBiro]

NEW: #Empathy is essential in leaders. How do we know? Well, we can see what happens when it goes missing. Twitter #layoffs, anyone?

The Brilliant Ink team is thankful for the jury's verdict in the Derek Chauvin murder trial and to witness, in the words of Stacey Abrams, "the evidence of our eyes met at last by accountability in the eyes of justice." (1/3)

[Dr. Wendy Osefo @WendyOsefo]

JUSTICE is having George Floyd here today.

ACCOUNTABILITY is Derek Chauvin being found guilty on all three charges.

We will take accountability, but as a nation let’s strive for justice so no other family has to experience the same pain.

"The combination of #diversity and #equity and #inclusion lead to true belonging. You can't do one in isolation." Important words of wisdom shared at today's #diversityinaction conference. There are no shortcuts in this work.

[Ann Melinger @annmelinger]

@AllthingsIC Agreed! I have been getting more of these kinds of pay-to-play requests disguised as recognition and like you, just hit DELETE!

Your core values should reflect your org's DNA & shouldn’t change too much over time. As your org evolves and matures though, it IS a good idea to revisit your values and ensure they still align. https://t.co/ulUwjbDRym
