Talkabout

When parts of the Midlands flooded in 2007, Talkabout was gathering exclusive news from Severn Trent Water colleagues at the front line and showing the rest of the business exactly what the company was capable of achieving. Even when water levels are normal, this monthly title is the business' first port of call for strategic messages, focusing on how they affect front-line employees. It delivers information to this important audience to show how they can grow in their roles, give them a clear understanding of the company's sustainability plans and demonstrate the responsibility Severn Trent Water has to providing the Midlands' population with clean water and waste water management. Talkabout supports intranet news and team briefings, both of which fall under Severn Trent Water's internal 'Talk' communication brand, and aims to create a community among the geographically spread audience.
