2. Feedback Loops and Two-Way Dialogue.  Communication must be interactive, not just informative to drive engagement, ownership and adoption.

•    Use authentic voices—peer testimonials, manager endorsements—to build trust and credibility.

6. Integrated Enablement Assets.  Assist as necessary in the building of enablement communication assets, including
•    Training aides, templates, and community portals are used to simplify adoption
