  • 69% said regular updates from senior leadership via Microsoft Teams
  • 53% said in-person events with senior leadership
  • 42% said a blog from the chief executive

Other suggestions included:

  • team talks from management and/or senior leadership
  • direct emails or letters to all staff
  • timely, focused information to staff receive information at the same time
  • creation of a specific LGR comms hub

Suggestions for keeping colleagues with limited digital access up-to-date included:

  • in-person team meetings with line managers and/or senior managers
  • letters, memos or mailshots
  • one-to-one meetings and other in person meetings and events
  • use of Microsoft Teams

We'll keep you up-to-date through as many of these channels as possible over the coming months.
