The story
The approach
Yahoo's internal communications team launched a strategic newsletter program using Axios HQ to create a centralized, engaging channel for company updates, including “The Weekly Download,” an all-employee newsletter, sent weekly with product launches, press coverage, tactical action items, and culture-building people stories, and “Manager Memo,” a people-manager newsletter, sent weekly with leadership guidance, resources, and reminders.
In their words
“Our CEO loves our newsletters and reads them the second they come out.”
