Daisy talks to Dr Adam Read, External Affairs Director for SUEZ Recycling & Recovery UK, about how crucial it is that we talk about waste - and why it is hard to do. Along the way, this discussion touches on Roman waste-management practices, the huge changes in the sector over the past decade, the power of communicating through images, and the need for cross-industry co-operation.And what does it all mean for you? Adam's main pieces of advice for communicators in unglamorous sectors are relevant for all of us: Hang in there, don't give up. Gaining recognition can take years – decades. Demonstrate the value of your sector in really simple, earthy terms. Think about what it is that you do that makes you valuable, even if you're out of sight, out of mind. If you stopped doing your job, what would they notice?How do you communicate that value? It's about real people, real lives, real opportunities, it's about small change. Engage your stakeholders, whether that is one-to-one or in focus groups, to understand what they really think and care about. That could be quite resource intensive but it pays off.In parallel, you need national campaigns. Cross-sector campaigns can play an important role in changing perceptions and allow space for individual firms to spend more time thinking about local interventions, including…Find champions. What's your ‘in' in the sectors that you're thinking about? Who's your gatekeeper? Who's your champion? Who's your infiltrator? There are people out there that do get it and do want to do it, and you need to give them the information and support they need to help take the community on the journey.You can find the all the data and analysis from the BRODIE Public First Sustainability Sentiment tracker here: http://www.publicfirst.co.uk/sustainability-sentiment-tracker.html

Often when we consider innovations across transport, we think of AI, automation, and Big Data. But what if there are much simpler solutions that are right under our noses? Often we neglect to think about how we can augmented the infrastructure we've already got - improve road friction, or even the user experience of a pedestrian crossing. On this episode, we chat with Dave Jones, External Affairs Director for Smarterlite Group - dedicated to making our roads, buildings, and infrastructure better, safer, and greener - about how something as small as improving the friction on our roads can decrease crash factors by up to 40%. Dave, who has over 25 years experience across public and private businesses in transport, is a strong advocate for spearheading a culture of innovation within government bodies and transport in general, and for improving the user experience of the built environment. Fostering a culture of innovation within transport and infrastructure benefits all road and roadsiders users; so how do we make this the norm? Smarterlite's website: www.smarterlite.com

Before founding Allison Aubuchon Communications in 2016, she served as the Florida State Communications & External Affairs Director for the Foundation for Excellence in Education and the Foundation for Florida’s Future, where she managed large-scale initiatives statewide. Prior to joining the Foundation, she served as Press Secretary for the Florida Senate Majority Office, promoting the legislative priorities and accomplishments of the majority party and providing communication services to members and their staff. Allison talks about what it’s like on Day 2 of the kids being home in the Aubuchon household. “Yesterday was a really tough day,” she said. “It’s a day where things started escalating really rapidly, about how serious the changes needed to be.” The challenge is to balance work, kids at home — despite it being spring break, they can’t go anywhere — and having “grace with ourselves.” Hopefully, Allison says, things will fall into a much more manageable routine as the coronavirus situation continues. Special Guest: Allison Aubuchon.
