A Small Business Guide to Big Employee Engagement 

Too big to run on tribal knowledge, too small for a dedicated comms team. Here's what to do with the gap in between.

You used to know everyone's names. Ideas moved by osmosis. Someone chucked a thought in shared channel and someone else just... handled it.

Now there's a steady stream of new faces, meetings where you scroll to see who's even in them, and role titles specific enough that nobody's sure who owns "telling people things" anymore.

You want to run good comms. But it's become another item on an already full day, and it turns out that communicating about the work is somehow harder than doing the work.

"Did I mention that at stand up? Post it on Slack? Update the shared doc?...

...Am I meant to do all three now?"

Suddenly, you're doing more 'work about work' than actual work. And it happens when a business outgrows its systems before intentionally choosing the ones you need.

Most advice on this stuff comes from enterprise playbooks. Big teams, bigger budgets, and stats that reflect working cultures on the other side of the world. So, we've teamed up with our friends at Workvivo by Zoom to bring this session together. Offering lessons learnt from SMBs overseas, adapted for what drives engagement in ANZ, and packed with practical, low-lift ways to build yours.
