Navigating the political role ahead with Dr. Iain Wilton

Series 8, Episode 5 of The Future of Internal Communication Podcast

01 Nov 2023

Dr. Iain Wilton is a former ministerial special adviser who has held several senior public policy, corporate communications and government relations roles - in organisations including the BBC and the Royal Statistical Society. 

In this episode, he shares why it’s important for organisations to stay abreast of political developments to minimise risk. We also find out which political risks pose the most threat to UK industry in the years ahead.  

A key way for internal communicators to provide strategic value to their employers is to demonstrate awareness and understanding of the external factors driving change in the way we work today. We hope you’ll agree Iain provides huge food for thought and plenty for our senior executives to consider as they navigate the path ahead.
