In 2024, Kendall's leadership was instrumental in securing a Gold award for the top internal communications campaign within the professional services industry. By conducting a thorough internal audit, she recommended strategic updates to the client's communication style. Her approach included adopting a variety of modern engagement tools such as a dedicated microsite, an interactive digital trivia game, and an e-zine, all reinforced by improved communication flows from management down to the teams. This strategy, backed by extensive project management, led to unprecedented levels of employee engagement for the client.

Kendall's recent portfolio includes directing a corporate rebranding initiative for a FTSE 100 consumer goods firm, reshaping the sustainability framework following a major merger in the UK energy sector, and guiding a leading UK housebuilder in enhancing its digital outreach to emphasize green skills.
