Natasha Liedl-McDowall
LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group) Senior Manager Internal CommunicationsCustomers will only love a company when their employees love it first.
I believe in a corporate world where employees feel inspired at work. My career is about using the vehicle of internal communication to help people feel fulfilled in the work that they do and safe to speak up. In doing so, internal communication plays a vital role in protecting and elevating a company’s reputation. It starts from the inside.
Originally trained as a television journalist in live breakfast TV and owning a wellness business myself, I've worked across a variety of large organisations from technology at arm, and data & analytics in the London Stock Exchange, to energy at Veolia and the civil service through Covid and Brexit.
I’ve worked with global audiences across 190 countries and those in the disparate UK frontline with our refuse collectors and retail branches and observed how technology that’s developed in the Chief Operating Office impacts the reality of our frontline.
Most of my career has involved filling brand new internal communications roles for companies, building teams from the ground up and starting with a new challenge, bringing new ideas to the table to create a function that’s not just ‘taking orders’ but a valuable, trusted advisor to the organisation it serves.
