Newsletters vs. Podcasts
Employee Communications professionals beware….the next new(ish) thing is here! That’s right, corporate podcasts have descended upon us. That means we’ve got to figure out:
- If corporate podcasts are worth using
- What corporate podcasts are great (and not so great) at
- How to use corporate podcasts to help us achieve our employee communications goals
- How to get the most from corporate podcasts
- The limitations of corporate podcasting
And, here’s the big thing: We’ve got to really get our heads around if, how and when to use corporate podcasts when compared with the sometimes venerated (and often scorned) corporate newsletter.
In this Corner: Podcast Guru, Jonathan Davies
To get the latest on corporate podcasts and corporate podcasting, we turned to Happeo’s podcast guru, Jonathan Davies.
Together with my podcaster-in-crime, Elizabeth Williams, I sat down with Jonathan to tackle the issues that employee communications professionals — across industries — have with corporate podcasts.
