This episode of the Candid Comms podcast is for you if you are a comms leader.

Maybe you’re a head of comms, a chief communications officer or senior IC manager.

If you are working in such a position, everything you say, everything you write, everything you advise feels up for scrutiny and it often is.

Bearing in mind my own experience from working in-house, I know how lonely it can be when you are at the top, when you are the most senior comms person inside your organisation.

What’s often missing is a sense of community, a safe space and a confidential sounding board where you can ask for help and test your ideas before going back into your organisation.

This is why the All Things IC Inner Circle exists. I launched them in 2020 and have been running cohorts since 2021.

Six in-house IC pros and I work together for three months at a time via masterminds and power hours.
