Meeting Management
Each unproductive meeting is a major cost to
a company. This service helps to ensure all meetings are streamlined,
effective, and accomplish more in less time. Through observing,
then designing a customized strategy for significantly increasing
meeting effectiveness, we help organizations to dramatically improve
and capitalize on meetings in a short period of time.
Crisis Communication Planning
Crises happen to every organization at one point or another. Some
are crippled, others shine through. The difference is most often
an effective Crisis Communication Plan. PrimeSource Communication
works with clients to custom develop solid Crisis Communication
Plans which enable organizations to maintain control, act quickly,
shape positive perceptions, and successfully manage even the most
unexpected and difficult situations.
Merger and Acquisition Communication
Studies have identified communication as a make-or-break factor
in mergers and acquisitions. Effective merger communication –
especially during implementation of the deal – can build employee
trust, investor confidence, and acceptance of the deal, while reducing
employee and client turnover and maintaining critical productivity.
But merger communication plays by a completely different set of
rules. Contrary to popular belief, a large amount of communication
is not necessarily the answer (and in many cases can increase conflict
and reduce outcome levels). PrimeSource Communication works with
clients of both parent and target firms to develop solid M&A
Communication Plans which help to ensure the new partnership is
as successful as possible.
Intranet Review
The intranet can be a powerful employee communication tool. Unfortunately,
most company intranets are underused and could be much more effective.
We provide comprehensive intranet reviews, which pinpoint key strengths
and opportunities for significant improvement. Reviews are based
on organization-specific goals, employee needs, communication research,
research on effective intranet design, and industry best practices.
Clients are provided with a detailed report of observations, specific
recommendations, and the reasoning behind each.
External Counsel
More and more companies are outsourcing their high-level communication
functions or retaining on-call experts. This is often not only advantageous,
but highly cost effective. As retained or on-call counsel, PrimeSource
Communication utilizes advanced expertise to proactively ensure
organizations are communicating as effectively as possible, continuously
improving, are equipped and ready for crisis communication, etc.
Most often, the cost of a retained high-level expert is less than
that of an in-house non-management level employee.
“Immediately
following our audit and strategy project we put PrimeSource
Communication on retainer and call on Melanie for many communication
issues.
I work with Melanie just as easily as with an internal person. She has always
been accessible and easy to deal with.
We have complete confidence in her understanding
of our needs, her knowledge and abilities, and are excited about the results
that we’ve acquired
with her assistance. She has added tremendous value to our organization.”
