In this episode I interview Advita Patel from internal comms consultancy CommsRebel, which specialises in internal communications and employee experience. She’s also a past President of the CIPR, serving for the year of 2025. Together, we bring the internal comms and leadership perspective into the frame. We'll be talking about how organisations should approach AI adoption from the human and cultural side of things.
