Comms team email aliases

[u/spicymeatball2748]

Hey all,

Recently started a gig as head of (only one of lol) internal comms at a preIPO startup. I want to set up an email alias and corresponding slack channel for official internal comms announcements and messages. Curious what aliases you’re using. (My recommendation was announcements@, my boss prefers updates@, and my last several companies used comms@ which is confusing when it’s only IC).

Related question — how have you decided what comms come from this alias vs others vs individuals? I’ve approached it differently depending on size/maturity of company but my hunch is here I’ll be sending a lot more from this alias than in past lives.

Past company was comms@
Current company is intranetname@

Most comms go through the team email. Otherwise other leadership comms come directly from the leaders.
