Frequently Asked Questions
How much should we communicate about leadership changes on social media?
Our communication framework helps you determine appropriate transparency levels based on your company type, audience expectations, and change significance - typically recommending acknowledgment of all public-facing leadership changes while being selective about internal shifts.
How do we introduce new leadership voices on social media?
Our voice development approach recommends a gradual integration that begins with formal introduction content, followed by behind-the-scenes glimpses, and eventually authentic thought leadership that reflects their actual communication style.
Should we change our social media strategy when leadership changes?
Our transition planning typically recommends maintaining core strategy elements during the transition period, with a structured review process 2-3 months after leadership changes to thoughtfully incorporate new direction rather than making reactive changes.
How do we respond to negative speculation about leadership changes?
Our response framework helps you identify which speculation warrants direct response versus what's better addressed through positive alternative narratives, focusing on future direction rather than defensive positioning.
