EDITORIAL

DANI BUIJTENHEK Communication Consultant, Trainer and Presenter, Owner of danibu

What makes your employer brand compelling? Is it the website? Is it employee videos? Or is it the global employer branding campaign aligned with all local offices?

Dani Buijtenhek, made in Germany, is a Netherlands-based and globally active, seasoned communication and presentation professional, with over 20 years of experience with some of the world’s leading brands, like Adidas, Roche, Danone, Teva or FedEx. Dani is the owner and founder of danibu | Making your communication dance, an internationally-operating communication consulting, training and public speaking agency - with a twist of Argentine Tango, that gets clients and audiences alike moving perfectly in step.

Let’s discuss these topics together!

The 4th Employer Branding Conference on November 5 – 6 2019 will give you the opportunity to reflect on corporate and personal narratives, successful employer brand relaunches, candidate experience, employee ambassadors, social media and employer brand communications.

For the 4th time, international communications, marketing and HR experts gather in Berlin for two days, discussing the most relevant issues of employer branding. You will hear cases from B2C and B2B companies from different industries, such as Panalpina, Celgene, GVC, Telekom or Infineon, to name but a few.

Be part of this experience, share your expertise and learn from your peers from across Europe.

As your moderator, I’m excited to host this event and engage with you. This year, we’ll be including additional networking sessions for you to make the most out of these two days. On top of that, you’ll get the chance to explore Berlin with us at a special dinner location, 207 meters above the city.

I look forward to meeting you all in Berlin on November 5th!

MODULE 1 Building an authentic employer brand DAY 1

IMPULSE

THE CURIOUS CASE OF STORY­ TELLING, EMPLOYEE BRANDING AND CORPORATE ACTIVISM

DAY 1

BEST CASE

REVAMP THE EMPLOYER BRAND Sarah Dovlo VP Employer Branding and HR Marketing, Telekom

In the war for talents a strong global Employer Brand makes the difference.

We took the challenge and revamped our Employer Brand to stand out in the employer market and focus on the key IT talents that matter to our company.

What is a revamp all about? Let’s go beyond a simple refresh of look and feel and dive into the topics relevant for success.

Sarah Dovlo worked for several years as consultant in advertising and marketing agencies before switching to HR as a social media manager focused on employer branding for Swiss Railways.

From 2013 on she was Head of HR Marketing/Early Talent Management for ABB Europe. Since April 2018 she is Global Head of Employer Branding and HR Marketing for Telekom.

4th Employer Branding Conference

For the past few years the number of employers embracing activism has increased, driven by either their purpose, employees or their identification of a new business opportunity. This talk will provide examples of when taking an activist stance is appropriate for organisations as well as the challenge this can present. In doing so, it will also explain how storytelling and personal employee narratives can support the employer brand.

Prof Dr Ana Adi Professor of Public Relations and Corporate Communications, Quadriga University of Applied Sciences

Prof Dr Adi writes, teaches and researches topics related to storytelling, protest public relations and corporate activism. Prior to joining Quadriga University of Applied Sciences and running their executive MBA Communication & Leadership Dr Adi has worked, lived and studied in the USA (with a Fulbright scholarship), Belgium, Bahrain, Thailand and the UK (and travelled far beyond). She is the Chair of the Digital Communication Awards in Berlin since 2015 and a member of the Institute for Public Relations Measurement Commission since 2018.

She has just launched Protest Public Relations: Communicating Dissent and Activism (Routledge) and is currently working on a podcast series called Women in PR.

DAY 2

BEST CASE

GAINING EMPLOYEE ADVOCACY AND ENGAGEMENT: THE ROLE OF EDUTAINMENT, GAMING AND SIMULATIONS IN EMPLOYEE COMMUNICATIONS Stacey Minton Sr. Director, Corporate Communications, Worldwide Markets, Celgene

DAY 1

BEST CASE

CORPORATE NARRATIVE: INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PERSPECTIVE

Dr. Edna Ayme-Yahil Corporate Head of Marketing and Communications, Panalpina

How can corporate narratives be transformative for companies? With several years of experience in different communications roles, Edna Ayme-Yahil looks at successful employer branding strategies and describes what it takes to develop a convincing employer brand and why companies need to have one.

All companies face challenging issues, many of which are played out in the media.

Employees need to be able to understand and support their company position.

Celgene, a biotech company, developed a program around some of its most challenging issues, including the price and access of medicines, to help employees understand the company position and be able to speak in a simple way about it with friends and family. Using a fictional film about an astronaut lost in space, a simulation game where people make decisions as the CEO of a fictional company, and a board game that shows the risky side of drug development, employees could confidently discuss issues that were appearing in the news. A set of simple messages completed the offering, giving employees easily used statements to support their point of view when speaking with friends and family.

Dr. Edna Ayme-Yahil is Corporate Head of Marketing and Communications at Panalpina. Prior to joining Panalpina, Ayme-Yahil ran DigiComms, a communications consultancy. She has also held various senior in-house communications roles, including at Philip Morris International, Nissan and EIT Digital. She currently serves as Managing Vice President of the European Association of Communications Directors.

Stacey Minton joined Celgene in January 2013 and currently leads Corporate and Employee Communications for Worldwide Markets (ex-US). Stacey brings more than 18 years of experience in healthcare communications, having worked for both agencies and in-house healthcare companies across pharmaceuticals, biologics, medical devices, diagnostics and health services. She is a frequent speaker and meeting facilitator and is passionate about driving bold and impactful creativity in the healthcare sector.

BEST CASE

MEASURING END TO END CANDIDATE EXPERIENCE – FROM OPEN POSITIONS TO HAPPY EMPLOYEES Chris Stanke Talent Marketing Manager, Infineon Technologies

How to get from a recruiting strategy to a consistent and positive candidate experience – including all steps from the first contact to the onboarding and beyond? At Infineon, we have focused on our most important profiles first. We defined a key function strategy and adapted our employer branding activities to it. But what do the candidates think? We value their feedback and make it part of the process.

Chris Stanke is responsible for Infineon’s employer branding. His main motivation are happy candidates and employees who have found the job they‘ve always wanted.

His passion for creative ideas and conceptual thinking has started as a copywriter in a small advertising agency.

This was followed as consultant and project manager at different marketing and communications agencies with focus on trade marketing, corporate communications and employer branding.

He has designed recruiting and employer branding campaigns for clients from various industries and all sizes – from global aerospace companies to local nursing homes.
