Benefits communication shouldn’t feel like a psychological thriller. I love a book with a mind-bending twist—like The Silent Patient, which I just finished and highly recommend. But when it comes to employee benefits, surprises and hidden plot twists aren't what your employees signed up for! Here's the reality: 67% of employees prefer ongoing education about their benefits throughout the year, not just during open enrollment, and 80% feel overwhelmed when making benefits decisions. How can you help? Clear, consistent, and continuous communication is the key to empowering your team. Here are a few quick tips to help: 📗 Keep the narrative alive year-round—provide regular, bite-sized updates. 📘 Engage through storytelling—share real employee testimonials to make benefits relatable. 📙 Encourage dialogue, not monologue—employees learn best through conversations, not just presentations. I challenge you to rewrite your benefits communication strategy in 2025—are you ready? And since I'm always looking for a good read, what's your favorite psychological thriller or mystery novel? 📚 Drop your recommendations below! #employeebenefits #employeeengagment #hrtrends #benefitscommunications
