Communication strategy

Communication with strategic anchoring

A communication strategy sets the course, sharpens the narrative, and clarifies how words and actions work towards the organisation’s goals.

Use communication as a strategic lever and create coherence between what you want to achieve – and the way you speak and act. A communication strategy provides direction and a shared approach. It brings the organisation’s ambitions, narratives, and actions together in a common foundation, so communication becomes an active part of the strategy – and there is a strategy for communication.
Why develop a communication strategy
Communication has the greatest impact when it is built on insight and a shared understanding. A strategy makes it possible to prioritise, make deliberate choices, and create coherence across channels and departments. It helps you use resources wisely, strengthen your position, and clarify your narrative both internally and externally.
A communication strategy is also about culture and ownership. When everyone knows why and how to communicate, it becomes easier to act in the same direction and stand stronger as an organisation.

Communication happens all the time. The question is whether it supports the strategy. Once communication is strategically anchored, it becomes a leadership tool that creates direction, momentum, and coherence.

A strong communication strategy sets the framework for identity, tone, and priorities. It enables a more strategic approach to the company’s narrative – across everything from leadership communication and internal culture to press, campaigns, and brand development.

How we work

We develop the strategy together with you. The work begins with understanding your situation, ambitions, and target audiences. Through interviews, workshops and/or analyses, we build a shared picture of what drives your communication and where the potential lies.
On that basis, we define the strategic direction, including the choices that will guide communication going forward. This covers positioning, messages, narratives, tone, and channels. We always work closely together on the wording, so the strategy becomes truly yours and can be used in practice.
Once the direction is set, we translate it into action. We develop a plan that makes it easy to get started and points towards how the strategy can live and evolve over time.
A communication strategy may include:
  • Purpose and strategic direction
  • Communication objectives and success criteria
  • Core narratives and key messages
  • Target audiences and insights
  • Channel strategy and prioritisation
  • Organisation and responsibilities
  • Action plan and measurement

The strategy becomes a shared tool. And it makes it possible to use communication to create real change.

What can happen from here
Once the communication strategy is in place, the work can move in several directions. Some choose to develop an identity that builds on the strategy’s narrative and values. Others move on to creating campaigns that turn the messages into tangible visibility and engagement.

For some, the next step is to strengthen PR efforts, so the strategic narratives are anchored in the outside world. Others continue with internal communication to create direction and ownership within the organisation.

Whatever the path forward, we are happy to help translate the strategy into living communication, both internally and externally.
