Great communicators use a blend of data, intuition and experience to drive progress, change and engagement.
Three Dots enable people and organisations to connect with audiences in an authentic, engaging way. This can be for organisations looking to support their employees to feel engaged and valued, or for individuals seeking personal and professional development with their communication style and approach.
Kim is an inspirational communications leader. Her knowledge of communications is superb and she knows intuitively how to drive communications forward, especially during periods of change. She is a joy to work with, adds value and I look forward to working with Kim again in future, she is a true star!
Kim is one of the very best writers I have ever come across – as adept at consumer-friendly copywriting as she is at corporate material – and a pleasure to work with.
Commercial writing
Consumer • Corporate • Public
From online to in-store, from creative to corporate, from team to personal… the most powerful messages come from embracing the ‘why’ behind your ‘what’.
We understand complex issues and distill these into powerful messages, so they are bang on target for your audiences.
Whether it’s for a business programme or personal development, the secret to connecting with people is trusting in the power of our uniqueness.
We run bespoke communications training programmes to upskill leaders and employees in the art of people engagement and connection. By understanding our impact, we can build on our individual style with tools and techniques that create more dynamic, positive and successful communications.
People who want to progress in life, work and relationships join Kim in personal, one-to-one sessions too. You can try it out with a complimentary ‘chemistry’ session.
Our sessions have really made a difference and enabled me to develop my communication skills enormously – such as difficult conversations. They have also helped ensure we undertake a well thought out and structured way of communicating at particularly sensitive times. I have developed professionally, thanks to your training, particularly with the work you did around my leadership presence. In fact, this has helped me in my personal life too, with the way I communicate.

7.1. Both parties will comply with all applicable requirements of the Data Protection Legislation. This clause 7 is in addition to, and does not relieve, remove or replace, a party’s obligations or rights under the Data Protection Legislation. In this clause 7, Applicable Laws means (for so long as and to the extent that they apply to the Supplier) the law of the European Union, the law of any member state of the European Union and/or Domestic UK Law; and Domestic UK Law means the Data Protection Legislation from time to time in force in the United Kingdom and any other law that applies in the United Kingdom.
7.2. The parties acknowledge that for the purposes of the Data Protection Legislation, the Customer is the controller and the Supplier is the processor.
7.3. Without prejudice to the generality of clause 7.1, the Customer will ensure that it has all necessary appropriate consents and notices in place to enable lawful transfer of the personal data to the Supplier for the duration and purposes of the Contract.
7.4. Without prejudice to the generality of clause 7.1, the Supplier shall, in relation to any personal data processed in connection with the performance by the Supplier of its obligations under the Contract:
process that personal data only on the documented written instructions of the Customer unless the Supplier is required by Applicable Laws to otherwise process that personal data. Where the Supplier is relying on laws of a member of the European Union or European Union law as the basis for processing Personal Data, the Supplier shall promptly notify the Customer of this before performing the processing required by the Applicable Laws unless those Applicable Laws prohibit the Supplier from so notifying the Customer;
ensure that it has in place appropriate technical and organisational measures, reviewed and approved by the Customer, to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data, appropriate to the harm that might result from the unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction or damage and the nature of the data to be protected, having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any measures (those measures may include, where appropriate, pseudonymising and encrypting Personal Data, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of its systems and services, ensuring that availability of and access to personal data can be restored in a timely manner after an incident, and regularly assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of the technical and organisational measures adopted by it);
ensure that all personnel who have access to and/or process personal data are obliged to keep the personal data confidential;
not transfer any personal data outside of the European Economic Area unless the prior written consent of the Customer has been obtained and the following conditions are fulfilled:
the Customer or the Supplier has provided appropriate safeguards in relation to the transfer;
the data subject has enforceable rights and effective legal remedies;
the Supplier complies with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation by providing an adequate level of protection to any personal data that is transferred; and
the Supplier complies with reasonable instructions notified to it in advance by the Customer with respect to the processing of the personal data;
assist the Customer, at the Customer’s cost, in responding to any request from a data subject and in ensuring compliance with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation with respect to security, breach notifications, impact assessments and consultations with supervisory authorities or regulators;

7.5. Where the Customer consents to the Supplier appointing any third party processor of Personal Data under the Contract, the Supplier confirms that it will enter with the third party processor into a written agreement incorporating terms which are substantially similar to those set out in this clause 7 and which the Supplier undertakes will reflect the requirements of the Data Protection Legislation. As between the Customer and the Supplier, the Supplier shall remain fully liable for all acts or omissions of any third party processor appointed by it pursuant to this clause 7.
7.6. Either party may, at any time on not less than 30 days’ notice, revise this clause 7 by replacing it with any applicable controller to processor standard clauses or similar terms forming part of an applicable certification scheme (which shall apply when replaced by attachment to the Contract).

11. General
11.1 Force majeure. Neither party shall be in breach of the Contract nor liable for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under the Contract if such delay or failure result from events, circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control.

The Supplier may at any time assign, mortgage, charge, sub-contract, delegate, declare a trust over or deal in any other manner with any or all of its rights and obligations under the Contract.

Each party may disclose the other party’s confidential information:
to its employees, officers, representatives, sub-contractors or advisers who need to know such information for the purposes of carrying out the party’s obligations under the Contract.

11.6. Waiver. A waiver of any right or remedy under the Contract or by law is only effective if given in writing and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent right or remedy. A failure or delay by a party to exercise any right or remedy provided under the Contract or by law shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict any further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy provided under the Contract or by law shall prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
11.7. Severance. If any provision or part-provision of the Contract is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal and enforceable. If such modification is not possible, the relevant provision or part-provision shall be deemed deleted. Any modification to or deletion of a provision or part-provision under this clause shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of the Contract.
11.8. Notices.
