"Lynn's personal branding workshop was great. I really enjoyed it and learned several new ways of distilling my experience. I was able to put some of it into practice the next day during a phone interview - I had a case story at the ready. I also enjoyed "Calling Cards" and have shared the exercise with two friends. I always find Lynn's input and advice to be so helpful."

"Corporate email: Too much of too much"
Corporate communicators sent 72% more emails in 2020 than they did in 2019, according to a new study by PoliteMail.

While the company says email was a “corporate success story” last year, the significant jump in email content may actually have had a detrimental effect on employees, says Kristin Graham, a former Amazon communications executive now working as a culture and employee engagement consultant at Ragan Consulting Group.

“We have been getting too much email for years, because we have to read them,” Graham says. “It’s like having to endure PowerPoints in meetings. Emails have become a part of our corporate experience, not necessarily our preference in the corporate experience. And that was the dynamic before the world went uber digital.”

drive market growth and enliven its values within its communities.
During this session, you will discuss the following:

• Positioning the marketer as a proactive, preventative and provocative steward of cultural change
• Developing a long-term strategy with immediately actionable tactics
• Navigating brick-and-mortar and online communities with a mindset of diversity
• Understanding the risks and rewards of "just doing your job"

She'll be joined by Hani Khan, content marketing manager at Simpplr, for a discussion on how States Title worked across multiple departments (People, IT and Legal) to launch its intranet to develop one company culture and virtual headquarters.
