Bad Santa.
Merry Comms-mas

Bad Santa.

This one needs a debate.?An agency head said to me (granted, partly in jest), that the top 3 slides that are the most controversial to present to staff are…

·???????The organisation structure chart

·???????The office seating plan

·???????The Christmas party arrangements

It struck a chord. Not least because I know I will have got at least one of those communications wrong at times despite my best intentions!

When it came to seating, I personally always enjoyed joining client service as often as I could - possibly because my career started in that discipline and there was always a buzz about it. I suspect it was also because, disproportionately, a great many of my canine colleagues would be hanging about the desks there!

And to be fair our Chief Gravy Bone Officers were usually happy with any Christmas party arrangements as long as I ordered in sufficient pigs in blankets.
