Engagement and communications
​​​
In a noisy world, the principles of good engagement are timeless. Know what you're trying to achieve. Build relationships with the people who are interested and affected. Listen to them, involve them and communicate information they care about in ways that work for them. Anticipate issues. Keep things simple, honest and humane. Review regularly.
