We are joined on this show by the champion of communicators and the original #CommsHero Asif Choudry.
We caught up with Asif to find out more about the origins of the Comms Hero conference, to test his spelling (he had been practising hard) and to understand why this guy loves communicators quite as much as he does.

The terrific transatlantic duo of Jason Anthoine and Benjamin Ellis join us to talk about What Employees Want and how internal messages from leaders or “the company” are often fraught with miscommunications. We talk about findings that stand out, how employees want to hear humanity in messages, and the power of storytelling. As with every episode, we share plenty of laughs at ourselves, one another, and a few surprisingly good accents at the end.
