As an agency which is focused only on internal communication it made sense for people across Sequel to be part of the Institute, which we’ve long recognised as the definitive voice of the industry, and to share their learnings with other members of the team. We’ve also attended events at a national and local level and we’re all fans of the communication for members including Voice magazine, the regular email newsletter and the content for members on the website.
