Podcasts about comms

I want to prove that PR, comms and narrative marketing works in 2025, in (sort of) real-time. But how? I've been thinking about this a lot over the past year. We all know the pressures today:- “Where's the ROI on comms?” Clients want metrics. Execs want proof. AI is starting to flood the market with generic content. You and I know comms and narrative marketing work, but how do we prove that to people who don't get it yet, who could and should be future clients?Here's the plan:-I want to introduce a new element to the podcast.It's based on an idea I tried last year and thank you to those amazing people who took part in that.In it we'll do a sort of “business makeover" show focused on comms.In each special, 30-minute episode:-1) A real business comes in with a comms challenge. Most likely, they are struggling to stand out as much as they want and need help, but it could be anything a narrative specialist can tackle.2) Then a guest expert (maybe you?) offers micro-consulting for 15 mins in the show.3) I then follow up a few weeks later to find out what happened so we can prove the power of comms.I'm giving you the quick version here. There is more in the video. To make it happen, we need two things. 1) Comms pros happy to spend a few minutes mentoring in a show. (independent individuals and agencies).And 2) Case studies - Do you have a client you'd love to reconnect with, or want to showcase your abilities to, that you can bring into an episode for some mentoring with you? If we can focus on promotion rather than reputation problems for now, then many could be ok with a little extra PR. If we have to keep them anonymous, we can, but it just won't be as strong. As I say, more in the video, but in short........I want to find a way that demonstrates these skills in action, rather than trying to explain them.You and I both know the future is not generic marketing. It's narrative marketing (PR, story-driven campaigns, comms, etc). It's time we "showed" we showed people that.#PR #Comms #Podcast #PublicRelations #Marketing #MicroConsulting #AI #Storytelling #MediaStrategy #CommsLedMarketing

Political communication, media and the divide in reality between the left and right of politics.

When it comes to communication, what you don't say can be just as important as what you do. In this episode of the Less Chatter, More Matter podcast, we sit down with speaking coach, performer, and strategist Shea Evans to unpack the often-overlooked power of body language, and how it can elevate your leadership, boost internal comms, and build stronger connections.With more than two decades of experience across performance and business, Shea brings a unique lens to communication. Together, we explore why body language is critical in both in-person and virtual settings, how leaders can communicate more effectively with diverse teams, and why internal communication deserves as much care as external messaging.You'll hear practical tips for building trust through warmth and presence, navigating communication across cultures, and using body language more intentionally—whether you're in a town hall, Teams meeting, or cross-functional team discussion. Plus, we get some insights on the myths surrounding communication, why “start with who” should come before “start with why,” and the surprising psychology behind open palms and camera eye contact.If you want your message to truly land, with clarity, confidence and connection—this is one episode you won't want to miss.Links mentioned in this episode:Shea's consultancy websiteShea's LinkedIn90 minute Strategy Power SessionPublic workshops and trainingLess Chatter, More Matter - Mel's bookTopic in Ten - have your say!Template packsChange Isn't Hard! - Mel's bookSign up here to the fortnightly mail out of free resources!Say hi!Follow me on LinkedInFind out what I'm up to InstagramCheck out my websiteAsk a question

Are generational communication preferences fact or fiction?This episode of the Less Chatter, More Matter podcast dives into one of the hottest topics from the 2025 IABC World Conference: navigating communication across multiple generations in the workplace. From Gen Z to Boomers and beyond, we explore whether the so-called generational divide is backed by evidence or built on unhelpful stereotypes. We unpack why some assumptions may be doing more harm than good and we offer three powerful strategies for communicators to break down generational bias, build psychological safety, and connect more meaningfully with employees, regardless of their age.Whether you lead teams, create change communications, or just want to challenge the status quo, this episode will shift your perspective on how to truly understand and engage your audience. Plus, it'll give you some insights onto stereotyping and how sometimes, it doesn't do us any good!

A big challenge during a hurricane or other disaster is keeping lines of communication open when the power goes out. In this episode, the second in our series tied to the 20th anniversary of hurricane Katrina, we report from the National Hurricane Conference in New Orleans about a technology used in 2005, and still employed today, to provide vital information during a crisis. In our age of growing reliance on cellphones and funding cuts to federal agencies tasked with disaster communications, could ham radio be our last antenna standing during a chaotic catastrophe? “Hams” talk about their ability to keep information flowing during a storm. Meanwhile, a very recent technology, artificial intelligence, is playing a growing role in hurricane preparedness. Emergency responders tell us how they use AI to issue warnings, describe the limits of the technology, and why – and when – humans should step in.  Guests: Bobby Graves – Network manager for Hurricane Watch Net amateur radio.  His call sign is KB5HAV. Julio Ripoll – A coordinator and founder of the National Hurricane Center amateur radio station, WX4NHC in Miami, Florida where he has been a volunteer for 45 years. Matt Anderson – Call sign KT5KNZ, volunteer at the Louisiana State Emergency Operations Center for two decades.  He was active during hurricane Katrina. Todd Devoe – Emergency management coordinator for the city of Inglewood, California. Brian Head – Chair of the fire rescue law enforcement and military track for the National Hurricane Conference; executive director with Buffalo Computer Graphics, former employee with the New York State Emergency Management Office.

We as a society need to begin rethinking our interface with technology. Think of these devices as walky texts. If you do buy these devices or are interested in delving deeper into the rabbit hole I suggest the following YouTubers Mesh core and the Like with Andy kirby The Comms channel, great intro series Thank you for reading!
