10 Tips for using Content Marketing in RecruitmentRaj Anand
The job landscape is undergoing some major changes at present. Typical candidates are behaving more and more like modern consumers by “shopping around” for jobs rather than jumping at the first opportunity that comes along.
The birth of “recruitment marketing” has brought about a major shift in focus for all recruitment agencies. Agencies that do not adjust their approaches may fall behind. As is the case with all other forms of marketing, it is crucial to develop a comprehensive understanding of the types of people that are being targeted in order to create an effective strategy that will provide recruitment agency clients with the most suitable candidates.

Continuing education has long held a special place in society as the school for adults intent on bridging the skills gap. That is a reputation it deserves—according to the US Department of Education, US adult learners are older (average age, 31), are more likely to have full-time jobs and are more likely to come from the 30 million students who dropped out of school earlier in their lives.
A survey conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), sponsored by SAP, gathered the views of 331 executives from around the world on how complex their organisations are, how complexity hurts them and the most successful tactics for reducing it.
Using analytics to mine large datasets for insights, commonly known as Big Data, is already transforming industries ranging from consumer goods to transportation. Certainly, the healthcare sector has the raw information to join this group. For example, Kaiser Permanente, a California-based health network, has an estimated 27 to 44 million gigabytes of potentially useful patient information. Expectations are that the U.S. healthcare sector will soon have a zettabyte of these data.

Lacking a set standard, the finance function tends to avoid assigning value to its brands, and companies tend to focus instead on qualitative assessments, such as brand awareness, customer engagement and perception of quality. While these metrics can inform growth expectations, they do not assess the true value that the company might have created by growing its brands.
Disen̂ar acceso al patrimonio audiovisual. El caso de la zanahoria. Mariana Salgado
En este trabajo se presenta el diseño de una aplicación para promover el patrimonio audiovisual digital en el aula llamada The Carrot (La zanahoria). El propósito de esa herramienta interactiva es que el patrimonio cultural en línea sea accesible y claro para alumnos de diferentes niveles educativos. Respecto de ese trabajo, planteamos dos preguntas de investigación: ¿Por qué es necesario desarrollar herramientas para contextualizar el patrimonio audiovisual? y ¿Cómo diseñamos y desarrollamos esas herramientas? Las respuestas preliminares a esas preguntas surgieron de nuestra experiencia en el proceso de diseño, el cual nos permitió comprender mejor cómo funciona la herramienta en el contexto del aula. Luego, relacionamos esas respuestas con el proyecto de humanidades digitales, EUscreenXL. Las primeras conclusiones indican que las herramientas para contextualizar el patrimonio audiovisual pueden promover la relación de los alumnos con el patrimonio cultural, desarrollar su literacidad mediática, y acompañar a las didácticas contemporáneas. Esas herramientas deben desarrollarse con un equipo interdisciplinario de expertos en plataformas distintas y utilizando software libre.

When it comes to how our stakeholders seek and share information, we live in a noisy and multilateral world. And, with widespread content shock, campaigns have little chance of rising above the din unless they are wildly compelling and targeted.
That’s why every communications program must be built on three pillars: informed by data, crafted with passion, distributed with precision.
Communications and PR campaigns must begin with deep human insights.
This eBook explores how to use data to build relevant narratives; create activations that excite; find the most important channels in which to place and amplify them; and to ensure content is found by the people who matter most.
Read on for data types and sources, and real-world use cases, for the four primary insights categories we believe should be considered.
Decades of economic growth and development along with better governance and nutrition-specific programmes had lifted hundreds of millions of people in Asia out of poverty, as well as starvation and malnutrition. However, due to the uneven development, while a large segment of Asian's population had changed their eating habits to over-nutrition diets and worrying about lifestyle diseases like diabetes, cancer and heart diseases, there are still some countries and regions suffering from lack of nutrition. For example, childhood malnutrition and stunting is still prevalent in South Asia, one Indian survey found that 21% of children suffer wasting, and a further 7.5% of children suffer it severely.

Digital platforms and services stimulate economic growth and development. Countries are looking to the “internet economy” to provide new market opportunities and help achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as promoting economic growth and sustainable industralisation, a process often relying on an increase in online access rates and smartphone penetration.

Internet connectivity has proven to be one of the most profound enablers of social change and economic growth of our time. Beginning with fixed narrowband internet connections and moving through successive generations of increasingly pervasive and powerful networks, connectivity has come to underpin our working and personal lives, empowering businesses to operate more efficiently and with wider reach. In turn, connectivity has sparked and fuelled countless new industries, products and services that are coming to define our modern age. Connectivity has proven to be a vital ingredient for business success.
This report examines the burden of lung cancer in Latin America and how well countries in the region are addressing the challenge.

In the cyber world, many are attacked but not all are victims. Some organisations emerge stronger. The most cyber-resilient organisations can respond to an incident, fix the vulnerabilities and apply the lessons to strategies for the future. A key element of their resilience is governance, a task that falls to the board of directors.
To learn more about the challenges of governing a cyber-resilient organisation, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) conducted a global survey, sponsored by Willis Towers Watson, of 452 large-company board members, C-suite executives and directors with responsibility for cyber-resilience.
Among the findings:
-In the past year, a third of the companies surveyed experienced a serious cyber-incident — one that disrupted operations, impaired financials and damaged reputations — and most placed high odds on another one in the next 12 months.
-Many companies lack confidence in their ability to source talent and develop a cyber-savvy workforce.
-Executives cite the size of the financial and reputational risk as the most important reason for board oversight.
Artificial intelligence (AI) will profoundly affect the ways in which businesses and governments engage with consumers and citizens alike.

This report, developed by The Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Microsoft, draws on a survey of more than 400 senior executives working in various industries, including financial services, healthcare and life sciences, manufacturing,
retail and the public sector. Survey respondents operate in eight markets: France, Germany, Mexico, Poland, South Africa, Thailand, the UK and the US.
As businesses generate and manage vast amounts of data, companies have more opportunities to gather data, incorporate insights into business strategy and continuously expand access to data across the organisation. Doing so effectively—leveraging data for strategic objectives—is often easier said
than done, however. This report, Transforming data into action: the business outlook for data governance, explores the business contributions of data governance at organisations globally and across industries, the challenges faced in creating useful data governance policies and the opportunities to improve such programmes.
It wasn’t long ago that a work meeting meant gathering around a table to discuss an agenda. These days you may be using Slack, Hangouts or other digital collaboration platforms that blend messaging with video and allow real-time editing of
documents. Even with these tools, communication at work can still break down, potentially endangering careers, creating stressful work environments and slowing growth.
A survey from The Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Lucidchart reveals some of the perceived causes and effects of these communication breakdowns. The survey, conducted from November 2017 to January 2018, included 403 senior executives, managers and junior staff at US companies divided equally and from companies with annual revenue of less than
US$10m, between US$10m and US$1bn and more than US$1bn. The survey research provides insights about what employees see as the biggest barriers to workplace communication, the causes of the barriers and their impact on work life. Complete survey results are included at the end of
this report.
Successful young entrepreneurial innovators have achieved something akin to rockstar status. They grace magazine covers and keynote global conferences, inspiring burgeoning
start-ups and Fortune 50 companies alike.
Collectively, young entrepreneurs are innovative by nature and their thinking is an important source of growth and job creation across the world. Today, with digital tools in hand, leaders are better positioned to expand their businesses across borders, seize niche opportunities and shape the global economic future.
Yet, most of today’s young entrepreneurs want more than status and a global corporate footprint. Their ideas of success arise from powerful social, political and economic convictions.
To find out what really makes young innovators tick, The Economist Intelligence Unit, sponsored by FedEx, surveyed more than 500 of these young entrepreneurs around the globe about their motivations, ideals and priorities. Our survey respondents were between 25 and 50 years of age and all founders, owners or partners of firms with fewer than 500 employees. They are living in North America, Europe, Middle
East, India and Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. We surveyed them on matters of globalization, technology and social values.
We then compared their views with a similar survey of the general public in the same regions. Side by side, these surveys enabled us to differentiate the outlooks of today’s young and innovative entrepreneurs.
Our surveys identified four key mindsets that guide young entrepreneurs: leading with passion; thinking globally; embracing social responsibility; and banking on connectivity. This report explores the similarities and divergences of today’s young entrepreneurs and the general public. It seeks insights into the elements of the business environment that matter most to entrepreneurs, as well as their views on a variety of issues including free trade and social responsibility.
Education systems across the world are grappling with the challenge of preparing their students for the rapid changes they will experience during their lifetimes. To this end, schools have a critical role in equipping students with the requisite skills and
competencies that will be in demand, particularly as digital technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly transform businesses and influence economies. In this report, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) discusses the results of a study that explores how to best prepare primary and
secondary school (referred to in this report as “K-12”) students for the 21st century workplace (“the modern workplace”), where
a mix of hard and soft skills are crucial for success. The research, sponsored by Google for Education, draws on a survey of 1,200 educators in 16 countries.1 It looks at the
strategies most effective in developing 21st century skills and how technology can support such efforts.
Gone are the days when marketing chiefs focused solely on the classic 4Ps: Product, Price, Promotions and Place - they now must take an integrated approach to drive company goals.
Corporate and shareholder sentiment towards MA has rebounded since the dark days of 2008. Low borrowing costs have coaxed many new buyers, including acquisitive Chinese conglomerates, into the market. The prices of prized assets have risen accordingly.

Corporate treasury is now a top target for cyber-criminals. Treasury’s trove of personal and corporate data, its authority to make payments and move large amounts of cash quickly, and its often complicated structure make it an appealing choice for discerning fraudsters.

In today’s low-yield and regulated environment, many Asia-Pacific investors are more actively monitoring their portfolios with a willingness to increase turnover and shift asset allocations for higher returns.
Asia-Pacific institutional investors are struggling to balance long-term liabilities with the need to secure yield in a world where it is increasingly scarce. They are also in the world’s fastest-growing region that has no shortage of volatility. How are they achieving returns while managing risks?
How are institutional investors in North America adapting to increasingly complex risks? Are these risks driving investors to make portfolio changes based on short-term goals or are they making tactical moves to stay focused on long-term objectives?
Political risks and the search for yield are pushing some North American institutional investors toward more tactical decisions. Investors are focused on reallocating to equities and using alternative investments to mitigate risks.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

Turn Digital Reputation Threats into Offense Tactics - Daniel Lemin
A European perspective on contextual marketing
1. The rapid progress of digital technology has
allowed marketers to build an intimate picture
of their customers and prospects. Since the very
early days of the Internet, digital channels have
gradually revealed who they are, where they live,
what they like—and more besides.
Now these channels are providing additional,
more transient contextual information. Where
are customers and prospects right now? What
are they doing? And what are they interested in
buying?
Using this kind of information for marketing is
called contextual marketing. Examples range
from established practices such as search-engine
marketing, which allows companies to reach
prospects based on their current interests, to
more cutting-edge approaches such as social
media advertising that responds to the weather.
Lipton Iced Tea used Facebook to advertise its

According to Bill Brand, president of the US
retailer HSN, contextual marketing is “the next
step in a progression from mass marketing
to segmentation, personalisation and finally
contextual, or what I call in-the-moment
marketing.”
A recent survey by The Economist Intelligence
Unit (EIU), sponsored by SAP, reveals that west
European marketers are already collecting a large
quantity of contextual information about their
customers and prospects. Two-thirds are using
some of that information to help them identify
and communicate with prospects, among other
marketing objectives.
However, much of the contextual information
that companies collect is currently not used for
marketing purposes. This reflects, among other
concerns, a lack of understanding of how to
communicate with customers and prospects most
effectively in a given context.
