About Me

Kevin Blasko
  • I am a communications leader who helps organizations and teams achieve more with comms. Leveraging my 20+ years of experience in leadership roles at McKinsey and other organizations, I support companies in three areas: transformation communications, writing and thought leadership campaigns, and internal / executive comms.

  • Mentoring, professional development and striving to be a caring people leader has always been a priority in my career. I have repeatedly built and led high-performance teams, serve as an informal or formal mentor, and frequently led annual performance review committees at McKinsey.

  • I also publish Strictly Internal, a free weekly newsletter with new internal and change comms jobs and insights.


Looking for something custom? I work with Fortune 250 companies, start-ups, and law firms on a wide-range of internal comms, transformation comms, and writing projects. I’d be happy to discuss how I can help you and your organization. Send me an email.
