Evolution Of Internal Communication Services At Russian Companies

Main objectives and conclusions of the study

Internal communications (IC) exists in every more or less large company. As soon as a company's headcount exceeds a certain magical number (usually, 150-200 employees), personnel services come to the owner with a proposal for an internal communications plan and budget. Such a process may be regarded as a sign of the company's "maturity", alongside a legal department or IT department.

The scope of operations by legal counsels or IT specialists is relatively clear. However, the role played by employees of the Internal Communications Department (including arrangements for the corporate New Year party), is an issue that requires explanation.
