Work Kits

Overview

Communication is key in HR, ​but capturing and keeping the ​attention of a busy workforce ​can be tricky.

Supercharge your internal messaging with visual ​communication, and you’ll find your audience is ​more engaged.

Likewise, compelling visuals and responsive ​collaborative tools will help your team make ​decisions without delay.

Here are three ways to get it done with Canva:

Forget bland walls of text, and instead craft creative, attention-​grabbing updates that cut through the noise and are a joy to read. Use ​one of thousands of premium templates and create a dynamic design ​to hook your audience.

You could design a colorful video celebration of a company milestone, ​design an eye-popping visual Doc, or apply your company’s Brand Kit ​and Brand Voice to a newsletter and keep everything on brand.

You can even add fun and informative elements, such as team photos, ​graphics, interactive charts and data visualizations,​ as well as linking out to other sites and resources.

W​hat’s more, you can collaborate with colleagues while you build your u​pdate.

C​ollaborate on your design or doc with teammates, give feedback in t​ags and comments, and share with others for feedback and sign off b​efore you publish. Forget about decision-making delays, and c​ollaborate with ease on every type of document.

So you’ve designed your company comms, and now you need to get it ​into the world. Of course you could download it in any format and send ​it around, or easily create view-only links for your teams to securely ​access.

Or you could publish your update as a website on a free or pre-existing ​domain, and send a link around for people to read it on any device. For ​internal-only updates, you can keep these private with password ​protection.

Whether you’ve crafted your update in a Canva Doc, a presentation ​deck, or a simple social tile, you can always publish it as a gorgeous ​one-page website for your whole team to access.

You can transform just about any Canva design into a website through​ the Resize & Magic Switch feature, or through the Share menu.​

And don’t forget you can always update your website once it’s live.​

Maybe the information you’re sharing is more complex and needs to be ​talked through when you share it with your team.

Why not pair your deck with a Talking Presentation?

Jump into the recording studio on any given presentation design, and ​you’ll find options for creating talking presentations. You can hit ​‘Present’ then ‘Present and Record’, or you can go to the Uploads tab in ​the Object Panel to hit ‘Record yourself’.

You can record yourself talking through your presentation, and choose ​whether you appear as a talking head in the corner of the screen or just ​a voice-over.

This solution is perfect for crafting your own detailed training videos, ​presentations that need to be consumed async by remote teams, and ​detailed team updates.

There you have it: three ways to boost your HR communications. ​Experiment with these methods, and see what works best for your ​teams and organization.
