Digital and Human Transformation: Jordan’s Corporate Communication Renaissance in 2024 and Beyond

by Ibrahim Tadros – Managing Director of Asda’a BCW-Jordan
Since the dawn of its existence in Jordan, corporate communication has adopted traditional tactics such as press statements and conferences to engage responsibly with the media and public. While these methods were undoubtedly effective back then, the rise of TV and radio marked a turning point. Corporate communication emerged as a fundamental tool for shaping reputation and fostering trust between companies and their audiences. The subsequent internet and social media boom ushered in another radical shift: real-time, direct engagement with the public through various platforms. This evolution triggered a deeper transformation in corporate communication tactics, something we see crystal-clear in 2024.اضافة اعلان

This year witnessed a true paradigm shift, far from merely continuing the digital transformation. The proliferation of data and its careful analysis have allowed for a more nuanced understanding of the public, not just as passive recipients of information, but as active participants in the communication process. This evolution has enabled businesses to gain granular insights into audience preferences and needs, empowering them to tailor their communication strategies with precision. By aligning messaging with content, context, and desired impact, companies are better equipped to meet their goals and shape a positive public image that reflects their broader objectives.

As the business environment, media, and consumer behavior evolve, the demand for hybrid strategies—those that balance traditional communication with dynamic digital tools—has surged. This hybrid approach is characterized by innovative content, focusing on multi-format digital assets that resonate with relevant audiences in a timely manner. Video snippets, podcasts, and blogs offer customized messages, while traditional methods remain effective for more in-depth discussions when deemed necessary.
Human-centered content has always been a cornerstone of corporate communication, especially in sustainability and social responsibility. These pillars have grown in prominence, becoming integral to corporate identities. Today, companies are increasingly focused on content that fosters engagement with community-centered issues, reflecting their commitment to social responsibility.

As decentralization reshapes the business landscape, impactful marketing has emerged as a primary thread of the corporate communication fabric. This has translated into the growing power of influencers—whether employees or content creators—who help forge stronger connections with the public through transparent and authentic narratives.

Additionally, the agency has introduced comprehensive social responsibility strategies with carefully designed pillars that align with client interests, promoting social impact, inclusion, and sustainability.
