Hi, we’re the comms team at CDPS.

We are skilled in content, design, social media, bilingualism, event management, media relations, internal communications, accessibility, brand, crisis communications, stakeholder engagement… the list goes on!

And we’ve learned so much about working in the open since joining CDPS.

We want to work with you to communicate the amazing work you’re doing and have put together this playbook to get you started! We’ve taken learnings from lots of sources, including our learning on the job, shadowing some amazing people at CDPS and through events, webinars and reading material such as The agile comms handbook.

We hope to pass on some of this learning to you.

Our motto:

Tell us the outcome you want to achieve and we’ll advise on how best to communicate it.

What it is all about

We’ve been working with teams across CDPS for over a year and have learned lots about helping you communicate your work.

We’ve put it all in a playbook which includes resources, tips and who to contact if you need further guidance.

Feel free to dip in and out of the sections you need most support with.

If there’s something missing – let us know by dropping us a message in the #commshelp Slack channel.
