How to get Internal Comms crisis-ready in any organisation with Sarah Farrow

Crisis rarely gives you notice. In this episode of LEAP Listens, communications consultant Sarah Farrow joins Sara MacGregor and Roger Cayless to share what internal comms teams need in place before the worst happens. Drawing on her experience leading communications through the sudden closure of a government-funded organisation, Sarah explains how to prepare for the crisis you hope never comes, from risk mapping and scenario planning to keeping knowledge from becoming currency. With just 24 hours between finding out and telling the entire organisation, this is a candid conversation about honesty and leadership, because in a crisis, it’s not perfect wording that people remember, it’s how you made them feel.

Turning internal conferences into culture shifting moments with Abi Humayun

We’ve all been to internal conferences that promised transformation… but delivered coffee, croissants, and one too many PowerPoint slides. This week, we’re joined by Abi Humayun, co-founder of People Activation, who’s on a mission to change that. Abi shares how her team creates internal events that don’t just engage the room, they change minds and shift behaviour. Think: employee-led storytelling, co-created content, even a live rap battle. From building belief before people walk through the door to sustaining momentum long after it ends, this episode is packed with proof that internal comms can be as bold, human, and high-impact as any external campaign.

The transformation within: Finding your true self through career change with Deon Pillay (and Charlie)

In this episode of LEAP Listens, Sara and Roger speak with Deon Pillay, an award-winning marketing leader and long-time diversity advocate, about what happens when success stops feeling meaningful. Dion shares why he left a secure corporate role to start a coaching practice in response to a deeper sense of misalignment. He walks through the mindset shift that made change possible, the questions that helped him act, and a simple framework for building a plan that balances purpose with reality. From finances, boundaries and values-led work, it’s an honest look at what it takes to change direction, and how integrity can become a habit, not just a principle.
