I can help your business communicate change better. Find change comms resources at or hire me direct.

Hot off the press: The Comms Guide is the new name for RedYellow Marketing! Customers hire me more to work on their #businesschange projects rather than #marketing, so it's time to change and offer online #changecomms resources too. Watch for more: https://t.co/M7MKMPQwaU

@nymr Great news that you’re hiring, but please could you use a more inclusive title than “Trackman” to make it clear you welcome applications from women too. Trackperson? Track engineer? Track maintenance specialist?

[Julie Sykes @thecommsguide]

@OpenComms_LD Oh Lindsey, what fabulous news! Many congratulations to you all x

[Julie Sykes @thecommsguide]

Have to admit I was a bit apprehensive about going back to the #gym yesterday, but the team at @Better_UK Energise York did a brilliant job in making me feel safe. Bloody knackered after 15 mins on a spin bike tho! #commshero

Covid-19 has encouraged even my Mum to get online – with encouragement. But how can we get #stakeholder feedback for our #communications ideas and campaigns in an increasingly online world? My latest blog delves right in. https://t.co/Efe9pmF0Xy #changecomms #covid19

Too true!

Anyone else find that writers' block is relative to how good the weather is? #workingfromyarden

Might be a while before I get to use my new #businesscards in f2f networking, but they're ready and waiting!

Advita's newsletter is a great read for #commshero pros.

This year The Comms Guide donated to the @S_LawrenceTrust, who enable young ppl from disadvantaged backgrounds + underrepresented groups into professional careers. The picture tells the story why. I received a lovely letter in thanks. Keep up the brilliant work :)

I'm on a #Prince2 CPD mission this week. #Agile webinars booked - check. CPD logged in @AXELOS_GBP - check. Picking topics beyond my usual "communications workstream lead" remit - absolutely. #headexplodinginagoodway #projectmanagement

[Julie Sykes @thecommsguide]

How can communications help furloughed employees in their return to work? I've written this post to help internal communicators support Leadership teams, HR, Health & Safety, Customer Services and more. https://t.co/DALSZKPqfz #internalcomms #furloughscheme #Covid19UK

[Julie Sykes @thecommsguide]

He did a great job. Enabling the audience to visualise numbers - and the scale of the issue in this case - is incredibly powerful.
