Profiles of future top leaders are changing and being able to communicate company purpose and societal impact is now a must have ability for any business leader.
Yet, we were struggling to name even three high profile, inspiring role models of responsible business.
vocL empowers business leaders, especially future leaders, to be morally brave and better communicators….
….to help create a better and more positive national debate.
What makes vocL unique is the combination of a specialised communication leadership programme and an app (a safe and constructive space for lively and interesting debate) on which members practice their communication in real life, by co-creating content (video interviews, podcasts, blogs) with associates, peers and communications experts, supported by world class journalists.
