Episode 105 – Reaching the peak of success: IC at Iron Mountain

The Internal Comms Podcast

We’re back for Season 12 of The Internal Comms Podcast, and in this first episode, host Katie Macaulay is joined by Senior Director of Corporate Communication at Iron Mountain, Neil Jenkins. Neil has led internal comms at British Telecom, Coca Cola, Vodafone and Siemens, and has more than a few tales to tell when it comes to engaging that hard-to-reach, disparate audience. This episode goes ‘under the Mountain’ to discover how Neil engages 26,000 colleagues – or ‘Mountaineers’, as they are called – across 60 countries. Katie and Neil discuss the challenges of building an internal comms function from the ground up, dealing with restructuring and setting guardrails when resources are limited, how to galvanise leaders behind your cause and much, much more.
