Wilshere Communications specialises in internal communications, engagement and writing consultancy. We work with a small number of ambitious, growing organisations — from scaling start-ups to established global companies — who are serious about building resilient, high-performing businesses.
In today’s environment – whether you're in-office, remote or hybrid – clarity, authenticity and operational discipline matter more than ever. Employees expect transparency. Investors want confidence. And the success of your business increasingly depends on how well your people understand where you’re going and why.
Support for new leaders, those stepping into a new role, or individuals seeking to strengthen their presence. A tailored leadership narrative is developed through one-to-one interviews with key stakeholders, enabling confident, consistent communication — from casual team updates to strategy rollouts.
As businesses grow, pressure often concentrates on the C-suite. Leadership visibility can be scaled by empowering C-1s to lead with clarity and confidence. This involves clear messaging, structured communication rhythms, and shared ownership — without unnecessary overlap.
When leadership responsibilities are stretched thin, it's essential to define who communicates what and when, ensuring communication feels intentional rather than reactive.
Change efforts often fall short not because of resistance, but due to poor communication. Success during times of transition depends on clear, considered messaging that helps people understand the “why” and feel part of the “what next.”
Whether introducing a new strategy, evolving team structures, or shifting how work gets done, effective change communication involves crafting the narrative, guiding the rollout, and preparing leaders to deliver the message with consistency and confidence.
Every business faces tough moments. The difference lies in the response. From internal tensions to sensitive employee topics or upcoming media coverage, steady, experienced support enables leaders to respond quickly, thoughtfully, and credibly — without losing trust.
When appropriate, tailored crisis playbooks can also be developed to ensure the team is prepared before the pressure hits.
A company’s mission belongs in every decision, not just in the pitch deck. Embedding purpose into daily communication means using aligned messaging, repeatable language, and habits that reinforce direction over time.
When mission shows up in the everyday — not just at the all-hands — it builds trust and alignment from the ground up.
As organisations grow, communication complexity increases — and so does the need for dedicated internal comms support. Building or scaling an internal communications function starts with defining its role and remit, writing clear job descriptions, advising on seniority and structure, and supporting hiring conversations.
Founders and COOs often benefit from close partnership to clarify what good internal comms should look like in their specific context — including the creation of tailored job descriptions, interview guides, and, where helpful, participation in the interview process itself.
Internal teams are often on the front lines of communication — without training or tools. Practical support enables managers, HR, and ops teams to communicate with clarity and impact. Whether preparing for difficult conversations or delivering high-visibility updates, it’s about ensuring the right message reaches the right people in the right way.
