Employee Communications

That Cut Through the Noise

What We Do

Employees are overwhelmed with information, and it’s difficult for companies to cut through the noise. The GuideSpark Communicate Cloud® platform makes it easy for HR and Internal Communicators to create and scale great employee experiences for key programs. With GSCC’s powerful automation features and engaging content, you can strategize and launch campaigns that reach and engage your digital, distributed workforce – and ultimately drive program success.

Company Story

In 2008, GuideSpark started out creating interactive content designed to better inform and educate employees about their health, wellness, and financial benefits. Over time, the business evolved to focus on employee communication strategy and how to effect change in our customers’ organizations. GuideSpark has pioneered a new solution – the communication journey – that encompasses a multi-layered communication experience to help employees gain a full understanding of any business transformation. As the digital world shifts, new needs arise, and new generations of people join the workforce, GuideSpark will continue to focus on delivering best-in-class software, incorporating new technologies and tailored services to help organizations communicate better and achieve their business objectives.
