Are organisations prepared for the social media leap? How are they integrating social media strategy into marketing strategy? What are the impacts for your employer brand strategy?
Karen will deliver a presentation on some recent research on organisational 'current practice' and how organisations are adopting social media into marketing strategy. Then we will run a more informal Q&A session and talk about social media strategy based on what we really know about how buyers behave and how advertising works. Some of this may shock you as it challenges 'typical' social media thinking. We will also discuss key trends for 2011. If you use or are planning to use social media in your employer brand strategy this session will make you re-think your approach.
Dr Karen Nelson-Field is a Post Doctoral Research Fellow at the Ehrenberg-Bass Institute for Marketing Science at the University of South Australia. Karen’s earlier research focuses around traditional media strategy, with a particular focus on the impact of media fragmentation on audience targeting. Her findings have been presented around the world including the European Communications Symposium (Barcelona), the London Business School and the prestigious Wharton Business School.
Karen’s current research centers around social media, with preliminary findings on how organizations integrate social media into marketing strategy presented at the 2010 ESOMAR WM3 (European Society for Opinion and Marketing Research, World Media 3) conference in Berlin. Karen has also has extensive industry experience with over 15 years in senior sales and marketing roles across a broad spectrum of sectors including Tourism, FMCG, Media and Major Retail.

Dr. David Kippen, CEO & Chief Strategist, Evviva Brands
“Ignite Passion with your Leadership Brand”
How does the employer brand connect with the group brand? What are the consumer benefits of a great employer brand? Is it possible to create a strong employer brand without considering the marketplace? You probably have an instinctive opinion, but few ask these important questions at the start of their employer brand journey and the answers may surprise you. Every organization developing a brand works to understand the marketplace in which it competes and to differentiate their products or services in that marketplace. Every organization developing an employer brand goes through a similar process-understand the talent marketplace, and differentiate. But few organizations take the essential next step: ensuring that leaders align their behaviors with these internal and external differentiators-and leading by them.
With a background spanning advertising and communications and a client base spanning the globe and including top brands in every sector, Dr. David Kippen is a world-renowned leader in brand strategy. David's past clients include category-leading brands like Ameriprise Financial, Bain & Company, Burger King, Catholic Healthcare West, Chevron, Coca-Cola, Dell, Disney, E.ON, HP, HSBC, General Mills, Intel, Kaiser Permanente, Microsoft, Nokia, Premera Blue Cross, Teva and T-Mobile.
