Editor’s note – July 2026

By Mike Klein

Strategic is growing – and we need your help in growing it further.

Every day, we publish fresh thinking about the challenges facing communication leaders around the world. Our contributors reflect different geographies, disciplines and generational backgrounds. And this gives us a distinctive positioning like no other outlet in our space.

And every year, we organize a variety of initiatives: participation events, online forums and training, and an awards program that are like no others.

Our biggest challenges are in broadening our reach, strengthening our commercial foundations, and making people in and around our industry aware of the difference we can make in their professional development.

How can you help?

1. Subscribe to our email newsletter, even if you come to our site frequently.
2. Share our content organically – LinkedIn doesn’t give too much traction to “reposts” and is a bit kinder to posts that share members opinions, particularly when they link to third-party content in comments rather than in the main piece.
3. Join us for our upcoming participative events:
   1. Innovation Sprint London, 17 September.
   2. Communication Leadership Summit, Washington, 16 October.
   3. Internal Communication Measurement Forum, Virtual, 6 October.
   4. Leading Comms Through Change, Virtual, 11 November.
4. Sign up for our individual and corporate memberships – particularly if you want to make your own thoughts and content visible through the AI search ecosystem.

Our impact is only as substantial as the community that can magnify, share and contribute to that impact.  

Thank you for the support you’re already giving – and your support and partnership will play a massive role in taking Strategic to the next level.

Best from Iceland,

Mike
