Story was challenged to produce a magazine that presents a human face of the Home Office and tell their story to counterbalance external press, whilst building a sense of community for their staff. The magazine needed to be an interesting read and a resource to help staff get more from their working life. Story Worldwide began by changing the strap line of Inside Track from “the magazine of the Home Office” to “For everyone at the Home Office”. This placed the magazine at the heart of the Home Office community and is more inclusive and friendly to all staff.
Inside Track Magazine
To reposition Inside Track, Story Worldwide decided the publication will:
Have a sharper design
Have an improved news section
Be more people focussed
Be more valuable
Be well managed
And will contain practical stories to
Help officers do their job better
Reinforce key goals and aims
Keep officers informed and to let them know what’s coming up
and Emotional stories to
Make officers feel good about their work – “you’re making a difference”
Make officers feel involved and ‘on the inside’ – “you’re part of the” team
