Internal Communications Editorial Calendar Template

An internal communications (IC) editorial calendar helps internal communicators:

• plan and organize online content and events to achieve the company’s set objectives;
• collaborate better with the team and other departments;
• deliver specific messages on time avoiding communication noise;
• have all IC activities in one place.

The current IC editorial calendar includes three worksheets dedicated to 1) online content, 2) events and 3) notes.

 The ‘ONLINE’ worksheet contains:

•  Title/topic
•  Type (email, interview, blog post etc.)
•  Publishing date

•  Objective
•  Related team
•  Owner
•  Status
•  Link to draft

The ‘EVENTS’ worksheet contains:

•  Name
•  Type (town hall, ‘ask CEO, etc.)
•  Date
•  Time
•  Organizer
•  Status

•  Estimated attendance
•  Actual attendance
•  Promotional assets

•  Production notes

The ‘NOTES’ worksheet is dedicated to additional comments related to specific IC activities.
