    About The Author

    Megan Wolfinger
    Although technically born a millennial, Megan feels more like a Gen X-er at heart given that computers weren't used for anything more than playing hangman until she got to junior high.

Megan calls the Saskatchewan prairies of Canada home and is the proud mother of a three-year-old son and baby daughter.

    At the Centre for Strategic Communication Excellence, we believe data drives decisions. That’s why we’re supporting Gallagher’s global State of the Sector 2026 survey—the global benchmark for internal comms and employee experience.

    • Is AI helping or hindering?
    • How aligned is communication with HR and leadership?

    Complete the survey before October 24 to access your personalised dashboard and get early access to the full report.

    Your insights will shape the trends that define our industry in 2026.
