The Case for Clarity

70% / of employees cite unclear communication as their top workplace frustration

#1 / Manager effectiveness is the single biggest driver of eNPS score variance

75 min / One session to build the Communication Playbook your managers don't have

The Problem

Your engagement surveys are telling you something your managers can't fix alone.

Low scores on communication clarity. Feedback about unclear priorities. Teams that feel busy but not aligned.

The issue isn't effort. It's that no one ever gave your managers a system for how to communicate in a world that never stops pinging.

We help HR and L&D leaders fix that at the source.

The Solution

The Stoddy Mac Playbook

Employee Net Promoter Score doesn't move on its own. It moves when managers lead with clarity, and when their teams feel heard, focused, and aligned.Most managers want to lead that way. They just were never given a system for it.The Stoddy Mac Playbook is a practical communication framework your managers co-create with their teams in one 75-minute session. It defines the agreements that digital work has never made explicit:

  • How and when we communicate

  • What "urgent" actually means here

  • How we protect time for real work

  • Which tools help us and which ones drain us

The result is a team that communicates with intention, not just habit. And managers who lead with clarity instead of noise.

That's what moves eNPS.

No new software. No outside consultants who disappear. Just a living playbook your managers own and their teams actually use.

Personalized for Every Team

The playbook works because it’s yours.

We co-create your team’s version live during the workshop, adapting each pillar to fit your reality, culture, and rhythm.

We move fast, mapping distractions, aligning expectations, and building shared language your team can use the next morning.
