Good morning and welcome back to this new edition of Editor’s Picks. Today I want to tackle a topic that is often underestimated, if not outright ignored: understanding risks in a company and the central role played by internal communication. I often notice two opposite attitudes: those who face risks with a certain bravado, without a clear plan, and those who completely ignore them, confining them to purely theoretical reflection. But risk is, by definition, a probable harm. And the more I understand it, the better I can reduce its impact. So I ask myself — and this is a question I also pose to you — is there a concrete way to truly know the risks before they manifest? My answer is yes. And, from experience, I can tell you that everything starts with internal communication. Often considered a secondary element, internal communication is actually the first strategic lever I activate when I want to prevent errors, improve processes, and reduce uncertainty within a company. When a problem is complex, communication becomes indispensable. It is the network that connects people, information, roles, and responsibilities. And it is precisely in these contexts that understanding risks takes on strategic value. It is not just about exchanging information, but about creating culture, alignment, and shared responsibility. How many times do we let ourselves be blocked by unclear messages, implicit demands, or information that does not arrive—or arrives incorrectly? We focus on what doesn’t work or who made a mistake, but we rarely pause to reflect on what truly makes an organization work: clear, consistent, and authentic communication. I firmly believe that synergy cannot exist without good communication. A company is a living system, and like any complex organism, it needs strong connections to function. So I ask you: are you still willing to believe that internal communication is not fundamental to preventing risks and growing your organization?
