Tour of Duty
Draft your first executive social media content that earns strong engagement
About This Job Family
People in this job family own the corporate narrative—shaping how the company is perceived by investors, analysts, employees, regulators, and the public. From earnings calls and press releases to internal town halls and executive speeches, they craft messaging that builds trust, manages reputation, and aligns stakeholders. Great corporate communications turns complex stories into clear signals.
What You'll Do
Executive communications professionals craft the voice of the C-suite—writing keynote speeches, thought leadership articles, board presentations, and CEO messages that shape how leadership is perceived internally and externally. They turn executive vision into compelling narrative.
- • Learn executive voice and messaging style for assigned leaders
- • Draft social media posts and short-form executive content under supervision
- • Research speech topics and compile background briefing materials
- • Support preparation of board meeting presentation decks
- • Build foundational knowledge of thought leadership strategy and platforms
- • Assist senior writers with fact-checking and content coordination
Every responsibility is an accomplishment waiting to happen. The question is: will you own the outcome, or just do the task?

- → Researching speech topics and compiling background materials
- → Drafting executive social media post options
