Clarity. Consistency. Control.

Corporate Comms Strategy for Leaders

Lead with Language. Win with structure.

As a figurehead for your organisation, everything you say reverberates far beyond the room, so every word you say matters – clarity in communication is a leadership superpower. I help business leaders shape and sharpen their internal and external communications, so every message works harder, lands cleaner, and builds the business.

Whether you're communicating with your team, partners, investors, or customers, the same truths apply:

  • The written word is more valuable than ever.

  • Structure and hierarchy define how a message is received.

  • Your voice must be consistent, deliberate, and distinct.

If you're writing updates, emails, memos, or public-facing content without a clear strategy, I can help you take control.

WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE:

  • Great communications are designed, not dashed off. I work with founders and executives to define a strategic foundation for all written output—whether it’s leadership updates, team communications, newsletters, investor reports, or public statements.

    Focus areas include:
    ✅ Establishing a consistent tone and messaging architecture
    ✅ Mapping key audience segments and aligning messages to their expectations
    ✅ Setting up repeatable workflows for message creation and review

  • I help leaders craft and refine high-impact communications—everything from investor letters to internal town hall scripts. I act as your editor-in-chief, keeping your voice sharp and your intent intact, no matter the audience.

    What’s included:
    ✅ Drafting and editing high-priority communications
    ✅ Designing message hierarchies to clarify and prioritize content
    ✅ Coaching on structure, cadence, and content clarity

  • Every message is public now. What you write for one audience will inevitably reach others. I help you pre-empt audience bleed, and craft layered communications that resonate with different readers without losing coherence.

    How I help:
    ✅ Identifying direct, adjacent, and unintended audiences
    ✅ Designing messages that hold up across contexts
    ✅ Ensuring tone, intent, and hierarchy are resilient across channels

  • our voice is your brand. I help you define your unique communication style and ensure it shows up consistently in every message. Then, we edit with rigor—eliminating fluff, clarifying intent, and strengthening delivery.

    You’ll get:
    ✅ A documented tone-of-voice playbook
    ✅ Edited and optimized communications for maximum impact
    ✅ Coaching for in-the-moment writing and post-hoc refinement
