CRICKET
www.cricket-ltd.com
At CRICKET, we help our clients to define, understand and engage all stakeholders with the brand to make a real difference to their business. We enable individuals, teams and functions to grasp their role in delivering the brand promise to customers inside and outside of the organisation.
To achieve this, we believe people at all levels of the business need to be involved. Without this, how do product designers know what to design? How will sales people know how to act towards customers? How will R&D teams truly understand what to research and develop? Against what criteria are managers to make business decisions?
For many people the concept of brand is often irritatingly imprecise and distant from their perception of the real world. At CRICKET we promise you clarity and relevance – by involving these people at the start – and then providing tools and activities that are useable and graspable by all.

Watson Wyatt

The better you communicate, the better your return on investment. Watson Wyatt can show you how to make effective communication a key driver of superior performance.
Organizations that communicate effectively with their employees dramatically outpace those that don’t, according to Watson Wyatt’s groundbreaking Communication ROI Study™. Our research shows that companies that communicate effectively have a 19.4 percent higher market premium than companies that do not.
Also, firms that communicate effectively are 4.5 times more likely to report high levels of employee engagement versus firms that communicate less effectively. And companies that are highly effective communicators are 20 percent more likely to report lower turnover rates than their peers.
Using insights from this research, our team of communication experts combines strong creative skills and technical excellence with a deep understanding of your organization and its culture. We work closely with you to:
- Turn your employees into smarter consumers so they spend their health and benefit dollars more wisely
- Develop formal communication processes, leverage technology, integrate total rewards and use employee feedback to generate higher shareholder returns
- Take advantage of organizational and behavioral change to better achieve your business goals
- Drive managers’ behavior and create a line of sight so that your employees can see how their individual actions affect your organization’s overall success
