About Leslie Engley

I specialize in clarity-focused communication for complex organizations.At EnerSys, I lead corporate brand and content strategy across social media, executive communications, press releases, and employee channels. I partner closely with executives, investor relations, human resources, and our lines of business to align messaging with business priorities while protecting brand voice and credibility.Recent highlights include leading a corporate brand guideline refresh and sustaining 24% year-over-year LinkedIn community growth (2022–2025).My work often sits where strategy and execution meet: I plan programs, write and design content (including earnings and corporate storytelling), and manage agencies, freelancers, and platform vendors to deliver high-quality work on deadline. As a people manager, I’m intentional about prioritization, clear feedback, and building trust across teams.Outside of work, I’m a Washington State University Extension Master Gardener Volunteer—still focused on helping things grow, just with plants and pollinators.
