Navigating Growth and Change: Comms Strategies for Mergers, Acquisitions and Beyond

In October 2023, BradyIFS and Envoy Solutions — two leading providers of supplies and solutions for the JanSan, Foodservice and Packaging industries — merged. With over 6,000 associates to consider, employee communication and culture was an essential part of the deal, yet internal comms lacked a seat at the decision-making table, feedback loops were yet to be established and partnerships would need to be forged with counterparts in the merged organization.

Join Michelle Press, Director of Corporate Communications at the newly rebranded BradyPLUS to learn how this vastly experienced communicator created a winning playbook of comms and culture initiatives focused on getting employees excited and aligned.

Press will give insight into:

  • Communicating stability when your organization has grown by 200% in two years.
  • How to manage and communicate change in a way that resonates.
  • Building a new internal culture that honors the past and forges a path to the future.
  • Choosing technology and channels that cut through the noise.
