The Future of Internal Communication podcast is hosted by The Institute of Internal Communication – the only professional body solely dedicated to internal communication. This podcast hosts a range of subject matter experts from within and outside internal communication, each sharing their insights on the future of internal communication. These thought-provoking discussions address the critical role of communication as a driver of workplace trust, connection, community, collaboration, innovation, engagement, culture, change, resilience and performance. Organisations today face a rising tide of challenges, causing widespread disruption and demanding wholesale business transformation. How colleagues communicate both on- and off-line is the glue that holds organisations together. Communication cultivates goodwill and drives alignment around a shared purpose. In a rapidly evolving world, Jennifer Sproul, Dominic Walters and Cat Barnard explore opportunity for internal communicators. As work becomes increasingly digital, data driven, distributed and on-demand, their conversations with thought-leaders examine the human side of work. This series showcases the critical link between empathic communication and workplace trust, connection, community, collaboration, innovation, engagement, culture, change, resilience and performance.

Welcome to Series 6, Episode 4 of the Future of Internal Communication podcast, brought to you by the Institute of Internal Communication.
The pandemic and hybrid work have triggered a mass re-evaluation of how we work. It’s becoming clear that reaching a ‘new normal’ will take years to resolve. Many organisations have started to re-examine standardised work practices and experiment with alternative ways of working. Between June and December 2022, 70 UK organisations participated in the world’s largest ever trial of a 4-day working week.
With results of the pilot revealed this week, we wanted to chat with Joe Ryle – Director of the 4-Day Week Campaign. In this special bonus episode, Joe explained the background behind the campaign for a 4-day work week and shared his views on where the trend for new working patterns is headed. Most importantly, we discussed the opportunity for internal communication professionals to help re-shape how we work, to the benefit of all.
