I am an innovative internal communications professional with 20+ years helping organizations inspire their people. My strengths are creative direction and writing. I specialize in two areas: 1) meetings and events, and 2) creating campaigns to help front line employees live the brand when interacting with customers.
What is your interest or involvement in employee engagement?
I am looking for new opportunities to support internal communication teams/initiatives in organizations based or with branches in Toronto.
Where are you located?
