About this listen

How do you make sure your messages actually land?


In this episode of The Standup, Joanne Frankel, Head of Internal Communications at Amdocs, explores the real challenges leaders face in cutting through noise and building trust.



Drawing from years of experience, Joanne shares why clear, authentic messaging is a leader’s greatest asset and how internal comms should be a strategic force, not just a service function.
