We are a strategic and creative agency focused on improving the way our clients communicate with their staff and key stakeholders.
By keeping people informed, inspired and motivated, you can typically expect to cut your recruitment and retention costs by 10% and see improved productivity.
You can also save on external communications, because anyone engaging with your organisation, will talk to someone who understands your values and knows how to deliver your products or services in a way that enhances your brand.
For a long time, our company has been helping individuals and businesses stand out through smart thinking, engaging content and design. If you’re looking for originality and innovation, you’ve come to the right place. At Blue Zebra, no two projects are the same, and each project serves as an opportunity for our team to create something completely new. Allow us to turn your ideas into the successes you envision them to be.

Improving employee communications across Berkshire NHS Healthcare Trust
Research
Currently there is little data available to assess the impact of internal communication inside the organisation and the effectiveness of internal communication channels. The Trust recognises the importance of internal communications and the impact it can have.
Our brief was to assess how effective communications inside the organisation was so we can identify how communication can be improved to engage and communicate with diverse audiences’ groups to make them part of delivering the Trusts promise every day.
Through a range of quantitative, qualitative research and focus groups to probe deeper into quantitative data, encourage dialogue and early buy-in we identified a number of key recommendations to enhance communication across the Trust. We worked closely with the communications team to put in place the recommendations and support future planning and communication channels.

Uniting two organisations

Employee engagement
Working on the merger integration communication strategy for Sovereign Housing Group we took time talking to employees in both organisations to understand what mattered to them. We worked with the communications team and senior directors to help develop the communication strategy and plan, the core story that shared the rationale for the merger and the future vision. We worked closely with line managers and communication advocates to help provide a communication framework that provides the tools and resources needed to engage people in the future direction.
I’m delighted with the results of the office branding project. It’s been an instant success and a delight for everyone to see the office transformed. People are now using all of the spaces and feature areas. We feel really proud to work in an office that reflects our values and what we do as an organisation. I highly recommend Blue Zebra.
