Несмотря на активное внедрение цифровых технологий финансовыми институтами, результативность инноваций часто остается ограниченной из-за недостаточной согласованности сотрудников и неэффективных коммуникационных механизмов, не обеспечивающих связку между стратегией и ее реализацией. В статье используется дизайн множественного кейс-исследования с сопоставлением государственной организации розничного банкинга (компания A) и частной организации розничного банкинга (компания B), реализовавших масштабные проекты цифровых преобразований. Сбор данных осуществлялся посредством анализа документов, полуструктурированных интервью и анкетирования, структурированного на основе пяти принципов стратегической коммуникации Лэнсфилда (2022): комплексность, персонализация, своевременность, прозрачность и последовательность. Результаты показали, что хотя компания A осознает значимость цифровой трансформации, выявлены существенные разрывы между декларируемой важностью и фактической реализацией механизмов стратегической коммуникации. Сотрудники высоко оценили значимость коммуникационных измерений (средние значения варьировались от 5,70 до 5,98 по семибалльной шкале), тогда как текущий уровень их реализации был оценен значительно ниже (средние значения от 4,08 до 4,38), что свидетельствует о разрыве примерно в 1,5–1,9 балла. Наибольший разрыв зафиксирован по показателям своевременности и прозрачности, что указывает на недостаточную оперативность и открытость коммуникационных процессов. Стратегическая коммуникация выступает критически важным механизмом, связывающим технологические инновации с культурной и психологической согласованностью внутри организации. Исследование вносит теоретический и практический вклад, предлагая коммуникационно-ориентированную рамочную модель для повышения эффективности и успешности цифровой трансформации в финансовых институтах. </p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>This study investigates how integrated strategic communication influences the process of consensus building and organizational readiness during digital innovation in the retail banking industry. Although many institutions adopt digital technologies, innovation performance often remains limited due to weak employee alignment and ineffective communication systems that fail to bridge the gap between strategy and execution. A multiple case study design was employed, comparing a public retail banking organization (Company A) and a private retail banking organization (Company B) that both implemented large-scale digital innovation projects. Data was collected through document analysis, semi-structured interviews, and surveys structured around Lancefield’s (2022) five principles of strategic communication: comprehensiveness, personalization, timeliness, transparency, and consistency. Findings indicate that although Company A recognized the importance of digital transformation, significant gaps were observed between the perceived importance and the actual implementation of strategic communication mechanisms. Employees rated the importance of communication dimensions highly (means ranging from 5.70 to 5.98 on a seven-point scale), while the current level of implementation was evaluated considerably lower (means between 4.08 and 4.38), revealing gaps of approximately 1.5-1.9 points. The largest gap was found in terms of timeliness and transparency, which indicates a lack of efficiency and openness of communication processes. Strategic communication functions as a critical mechanism linking technological innovation with cultural and psychological alignment within organizations. The study provides valuable theoretical and practical implications by presenting a communication-based framework for optimizing and successfully improving digital transformation outcomes in financial institutions. </p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>банк</kwd><kwd>розничный банкинг</kwd><kwd>банковская практика</kwd><kwd>цифровые инновации</kwd><kwd>цифровая стратегия</kwd><kwd>стратегическая коммуникация</kwd><kwd>формирование консенсуса</kwd><kwd>организационные изменения</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Bank</kwd><kwd>Retail Banking</kwd><kwd>Banking Practice</kwd><kwd>Digital Innovation</kwd><kwd>Digital Strategy</kwd><kwd>Strategic Communication</kwd><kwd>Consensus Building</kwd><kwd>Organizational Change</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group xml:lang="ru"><funding-statement>данное исследование было поддержано Исследовательскими Грантами  Университета Тэджон (2024).</funding-statement></funding-group><funding-group xml:lang="en"><funding-statement>this research was supported by the Daejeon University Research Grants (2024).</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Argyris, C., &amp; Schön, D.
