• {{communication_channels}}: The channels you prefer to use (e.g., email, town halls, intranet).
• {{timeline}}: The integration timeline and key milestones.

Instructions

1. If any inputs are missing, ask for them before starting.
2. Identify the key messages for each stakeholder group, emphasizing the benefits and addressing potential concerns.
3. Recommend the most effective communication channels for each group.
4. Develop a communication timeline that aligns with the integration milestones, including regular updates and feedback loops.

• Ensure the plan is actionable and tailored to the given timeline.
