According to Hubspot, 81% of companies will have a marketing budget dedicated solely to video by 2023. While video is an excellent external communication tool, it also proves its worth when it comes to communicating internally.
The challenges of internal communication
Internal communication encompasses all the communication actions carried out within a company or organization, with its teams as the audience. In 2023, there will be no more posters in the break room and a few e-mails sent on the fly. Internal communications will be digital, dynamic and, above all, effective.
According to a 2020 GuideSpark survey, the perception of internal communication differs between employees and human resources. 78% of HR and 61% of managers find that internal communication is perfectly established, while only 39% of employees believe that information is accessible.
What's more, 65% say they find information incomplete, and 72% consider messages impersonal. This discernment gap shows that there are real challenges to be met in terms of internal communications within companies and organizations.
But when it comes to internal communications, it's just as important to ask the right questions in order to produce an effective video:
- What message would you like to get across internally?
- Why is it important to get this message across to your employees?
- Where do you want to broadcast your message?
- When will you roll out your message?
- Who will be involved in creating these messages?
These 5 points, also known as the 5Ws, for What, why, where, when, who, allow you to effectively address your key topics in the creation of videos, for your company's internal communication.
