    EP 17: What is the Corporate Voice?

    EP 17: What is the Corporate Voice?

    Capturing the Corporate Voice in your own business writing is a lot simpler than you think! 

    It doesn’t change much from one organization to another, rather, it’s a shared way that businesses talk about themselves. It’s middle of the road, it doesn’t offend, it’s factual, optimistic, and predictable. 

    In this episode, communication pros Tracey Hirsch and Faye Furdyk discuss the role of the corporate voice in business writing and why it isn’t as difficult to capture as people may believe. 

    Like what you see and want to dive deeper into this or other topics with us? We’d love to help. 

    Many problems that arise in business and at work result from a lack of communication, miscommunication, misalignment of expectations or objectives. Tracey and Faye can work with you to assess the situation and develop a plan that will help you and your team identify gaps, address needs and get on the path to a smoother, more successful operation.

    EP 14: Feedback on Feedback

    EP 14: Feedback on Feedback

    Do you know how to ask for feedback on your work? How to manage the feedback you get? How to give feedback when it’s asked of you?

    For many of us, asking for, receiving and giving feedback is part of our jobs, but feedback can be hard to manage. Feedback needs to be helpful. It needs to be actionable. It needs to align with objectives. It needs to be about substance not style. 

    Communication pros Tracey Hirsch and Faye Furdyk take you through the ins and outs of asking, getting and giving feedback so you don’t get caught in an endless feedback loop. Take a listen and find out more.

    EP 13: Choosing the Right Tactics when Communicating Change

    EP 13: Choosing the Right Tactics when Communicating Change

    What is the best tactic to use for communicating change? Is it a newsletter? Is it a team meeting? Is it a video chat or text chat? Is it a cross country tour?

    The answer is yes, or it could be no. Because there is no right answer. But there are quite frankly many wrong ones. And that's what we talk about in this episode of More Better: How to determine the right communication channel to reach those audiences who are impacted by the change and those leading the change.

    EP 12: You Don’t Have To Be A Great Writer To Be A Great Communicator

    EP 12: You Don’t Have To Be A Great Writer To Be A Great Communicator

    You CAN be a great communicator without being a great writer. Great communicators:

    1) use empathy to understand the needs of their team 

    2) use an approach that makes sense to the people they’re engaging 

    3) commit to a process that meets people’s communication needs. 

    None of this requires great writing, only a desire to improve the communication in your business or on your team.
