You’ve scoped a great HR initiative. It’s strategic. It’s scalable. It could shift culture for the better.
But there’s one problem: your leadership team still sees HR as a service function—not a strategic driver.
Sound familiar?
One of the most frustrating blockers for HR professionals isn’t building the project itself—it’s getting senior leadership to fund it, prioritise it, or even take it seriously.
That’s why we want to show you an internal communications example in action: how tools like Thesmia are helping HR teams build persuasive business cases and land their message with the C-suite.
Whether it’s launching a new performance platform, redesigning onboarding, or refreshing wellbeing policies, these aren’t just “HR tasks”—they’re change programmes. And change needs:
A compelling reason (business case)
Strategic endorsement (leadership)
Long-term engagement (not just a one-off presentation)
But often, HR teams are left doing this solo—without comms support or clear frameworks. That’s where Thesmia comes in.
Thesmia is like a comms strategist in your pocket. It's an AI assistant built specifically for HR teams who are time-poor but ambitious. You can think of it as your internal comms sidekick—designed to help you launch, land and embed HR initiatives.
And it’s particularly good at helping with one of the toughest pieces: senior leadership engagement.
Let’s look at how it works.
Imagine you’re about to launch a new engagement survey or performance review cycle, and you need the exec team to not just approve it—but champion it.
Here’s how Thesmia helps:
In the tool, there’s a built-in prompt:
"Help me get leadership buy-in for a new HR initiative."
When you click it, Thesmia doesn’t just give you a stock answer. It asks smart questions:
Who are your stakeholders (CEO, CFO, COO)?
What’s the business case—cost, risk, retention?
What objections might come up?
What data do you already have?
Based on your answers, Thesmia then helps you:
Outline a business case that ties to commercial goals
Tailor your messaging to each exec (e.g., a CFO might care more about ROI than culture)
Sequence your comms so it’s not just a one-off slide deck
Suggest formats: decks, talking points, scripts, comms packs
Crucially, Thesmia doesn’t stop at launch. It also prompts you to:
Keep the conversation going
Create follow-up updates
Use storytelling and success metrics to re-engage leaders
This isn’t just a “click and generate” tool—it’s helping HR think and act like strategic operators.
Senior leaders are one part of the equation—but employees need to feel the “why” too. Thesmia helps HR teams:
Craft launch emails for employees
Create manager toolkits with talking points
Suggest sequencing and nudge tactics (e.g., when to Slack vs. when to use video)
For instance, if you're rolling out a new performance management process, you can ask:
"How do I get everyone to buy into our upcoming annual appraisals?"
Thesmia will:
Ask you about current tools, sentiment, and influencers
Offer clear timelines
Suggest FAQs, manager briefings, and comms channels
What makes this approach powerful is that Thesmia doesn’t replace your judgement—it enhances it. It takes the thinking you already do, but speeds it up, strengthens the message, and adapts it to different audiences.
You still own the strategy. Thesmia just makes you faster, sharper, and more confident—especially when it comes to engaging leadership.
Getting senior leaders to care about HR projects isn’t about louder comms. It’s about smarter, more strategic storytelling. And that’s what Thesmia enables.
So if you’re tired of staring at a blank doc, dreading another board pack, or struggling to articulate the impact of your work—this is your sign to try something new.
