Implementing an inclusive, cross cultural communication strategy

You have been approached by the Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP) for your department to suggest you consider implementing a communication strategy which is inclusive and cross cultural and which supports the organisation’s people policies.

As a Line Manager, you would need to consider the following:

• How will the strategy take into account the cross-cultural nature of the workforce?
• The benefits and barriers to remote communication?
• How will the strategy support the goals of inclusion and belonging?
• How will the briefing strategy encompass the cultural variety of team members and ensure everyone has a voice?
• The suitability and appropriateness of the briefing strategy?

The structure of the report should be:

• Introduction (where you briefly state the purpose of the report)
• The proposed briefing strategy (this should include the potential benefits and drawbacks of the proposal)
• Conclusion (this will include your implementation plan and include how you intend to overcome any drawbacks)
• Bibliography (not included in the word count)
