Creating Better Communicators, One Human at a Time.

Our Approach

Duly Noted is a multidisciplinary communications consulting group. We help clients improve their communication skills through strategy implementation developed from communication science theory; we specialize in working with clients who want to tackle intergenerational and family communication issues.

Effective communication is essential for both businesses and families, but many struggle with barriers that lead to misunderstandings, conflicts, and inefficiencies. In businesses, this often means misalignment between teams, ineffective leadership communication, and high-stress responses that hurt team morale and productivity. For families, it can mean generational gaps, ongoing conflicts from misunderstandings, and difficulty expressing emotions and needs, especially during stressful times.


At Duly Noted, we understand these challenges and are here to help. We offer tailored communication strategies that align teams, enhance leadership effectiveness, and manage stress in the workplace. For families, we bridge generational gaps, facilitate better understanding, and help family members express themselves in a healthy way. Our personalized approach, grounded in communication science, ensures that we address your unique needs. Whether you're a business aiming for operational efficiency or a family seeking harmony, Duly Noted is here to support you in improving your communication skills and achieving your goals.

Meet Our CEO

Our founder, Emily, developed a passion for intergenerational communication research in family contexts during her early years in higher education as she sought to intellectualize her own familial situations.

Through her work as a scholar, Emily realized the power of communication theory and her desire to share her knowledge with others. Read more about her journey to launching Duly Noted below!

Why “Duly Noted?”

“For me, the phrase “Duly Noted” embodies the idea of life-long learning, tucking bits of knowledge away for later use. I strive to help my clients take advantage of the “Duly Noted” moments in their lives to help them become better communicators.”

  • "As I am transitioning into the next phase of my career, I knew I needed to share my story about why I’m pursuing the highest degrees in medicine; my decision to entrust fellow scientists with a narrative so personal to me, however, presented a unique challenge of disclosing my profoundly personal experience while maintaining professional tone of voice to help them understand me better as both a researcher and human being. I knew that toeing the line of personal and professional communication was where I needed the most help in this career transition and that Emily would be the perfect person to help me craft the right message through proven communication practices."
