Communication Director Newsletter - 04.08.2015
personnel jobs article events facts-figures

Welcome to the August edition of Communication Directory,

This month's edition of Communication Directory newsletter, brought to you by Communication Director Magazine, wants to start a conversation about CSR storytelling within organisations. Our main article this month doubles as a call-to-action from an exciting new research project, the CSR Volunteering Storytelling Research project, which wants to hear from professionals who have taken part in a company-run volunteering program in the past two years. The study wants to identify how reflective storytelling contributes to the employees’ personal transformative journey, influences their perceived relationships and loyalty with their employer and shapes perception of their organization’s CSR programs. If you’ve taken part in such a volunteering program, we urge you to get in touch with the project coordinators: details can be found in the article.

Elsewhere, we present the usual mix of personnel changes, events and vacancies from the field of European corporate communications, as well as news of survey findings that provide compelling evidence that employer brand is a potent recruitment tool - more details inside.

For those of you about to embark on your no-doubt well-deserved summer break, we at Communication Director wish you a relaxing and rewarding pause.
