In this episode, Katie welcomes back the Internal Comms Podcast’s MVP, founder and CEO of Dewpoint Communications Victoria Dew.
Back in 2022, Victoria featured on episode 61 of the podcast – our most popular yet, with 21,000 listens and counting. She returns three years later with the same incredible insights into our industry, an infectious enthusiasm for all things IC and a clear-minded view of our, at times, convoluted profession.
She also comes clutching her fascinating new report and, in this episode, Victoria and Katie discuss Connecting the frontline: Current trends, challenges, and strategic opportunities in workforce communication at length. It’s a report that addresses the successes and failures of organisations communicating with the 80% of workers who aren’t tied to a desk. And, as Victoria explains, it’s a ‘love letter to comms pros’.
They explore ‘cracking the frontline code’, the misconception that frontline workers aren’t particularly engaged, the AI-influenced changes coming down the line and a business-focused way of thinking about your comms function.

The science of happiness (and why we get it wrong) – with Professor Catherine Sanderson (#122)
Season 14 of the Internal Comms Podcast kicks off with a conversation about happiness.
Host Katie Macaulay welcomes Professor Catherine Sanderson to discuss what really makes us happy. The internal comms hook? As internal communicators, we’re often asked to promote wellbeing initiatives at work; the link between happiness and productivity is clear.
Together Katie and Catherine – a professor of psychology at Amherst College, celebrated speaker and bestselling author – discuss how happiness is not a trait but a choice, not a gift but a practice.
They also explore what happens when leaders model the right and wrong behaviours and why good people stay silent in the face of wrongdoing, the core theme of Catherine’s book, Why We Act: Turning Bystanders into Moral Rebels. If you’re running a speak up campaign – or planning one (AB can help!) – this one is for you.
As this episode goes live, we’re entering the final quarter of the year. So it is perhaps the best time to listen to someone who devotes their working life and substantial intellect to help people ‘lead happier, healthier, better lives.’
