Roger is one of the business world’s
foremost thinkers in the formulation of communication strategy
and, to his chagrin, often referred to as ‘the father of
employee communication’ or, worse, as ‘the guru’ for his
original contributions to the profession.
He is a Fellow of the International
Association of Business Communicators (IABC), the highest award
that organization bestows on leaders of the communication
profession. That same organization called him “one of the 25
most influential people in the communication profession in the
last 25 years.”
Roger specializes in the design and
development of employee communication strategy as well as
communication training for line managers and development of
senior executive communication initiatives for organizations
facing significant and potentially disruptive change.
Prior to joining ROI, he was a vice
president and global practice leader of Towers Perrin and a
principal of Mercer Human Resource Consulting. He also spent 13
years in various executive communication positions at Xerox
Corporation. He is the author of six books on internal
communication issues, including his latest best-selling book
“Communicating for Change: Connecting the Workplace with the
Marketplace.” His Face-to-Face Communication Toolkit has been a
popular choice for organizations looking to improve line manager
communication. He is also a sought-after speaker and workshop
leader for professional conferences and company workshops. In
his long career he has consulted with scores of Fortune 500
Companies. |
