From Core Values to Critical Conversations: What your brand really means (2021)Terri Trespicio
Got a name? Check. Got a logo? Check. Congrats! You have a brand. The question is whether anyone knows what your brand means. Sometimes all those assets, logos, family crests, whatever, can get in the way of you saying anything different, anything original...anything that sounds like you.
In this presentation, given at the Barron’s Independent Advisors Summit 2021, brand advisor Terri Trespicio walks you through the ways the financial services industry has been hamstrung by outmoded ideas of brand—and the three ways to UNbrand yourself so that you can start connecting in ways that matter.

The game has changed. Cold calling, marketing collateral, template proposals, two-hour business lunches, deals on the golf course and the selling system you subscribed to for 10 years?
Dead end.
A new era has emerged where more sophisticated and demanding buyer’s carefully guard their time and approach any buying decision with caution, scrutiny and rigor that simply didn’t exist a few years prior. And earning a partnership through a competitive decision cycle with today’s Buyer requires advanced Sales PROCESS, SKILL and STRATEGY.
This presentation provides 10 principles to ignite sales success, sell like a Rock Star and build a client community of brand evangelists in the knowledge economy.

Marketing for the Everyday Geek (ACT-W 4/16)Zoe Landon
(This is a revision of my RefreshPDX talk, "A Skeptic's Guide to Branding".)
Even the most skeptical geek has to market themselves at some point in their career. All the jargon and tacky buzzwords can turn you away from the idea, but there are benefits to be had. And there's science to back up those benefits.
Big data has given marketers an unprecedented view into the attitudes and behaviors of larger audiences than ever before. But as we become increasingly reliant on big-data analytics, we’re also basing our insights on the same data pool—and arriving at very similar ideas. It’s a race to the middle that can dilute brand perceptions and value.
For brands to stand out, big data isn’t enough. That’s where small data comes in.
In our latest white paper, we show how using small data—the tiny clues that can uncover consumers’ drivers and desires—can uncover consumer insights that can't be found through big data alone.
Read the white paper, and find out how small data can lead to breakthrough ideas that transform brands and brand experience.
Everyone sells, even you. Learn a simple, easy way to sell by thinking like a buyer, not a seller. Every sales cycle has four phases, but learn why the second one – educating your buyer – can make or break the deal. I’ll teach you the 5 step CM!(tm) process, set you up with a toolbox full of ideas, and get you started on how to become a convincing expert.

Top 20 Marketing Thought Leaders You Should Definitely Be FollowingAumcore
In a world where everything is digital, traditional marketing just doesn’t make the cut anymore. You need a way to connect and foster relationships with your consumer base; you need digital marketing. Digital marketing offers something that its predecessor cannot: two-way dialogue in which you speak ‘with your audience’ rather than ‘at your audience.’
More than that, even when employing a digital marketing agency, taking a digital approach saves you money and brings in higher conversions and ROIs. Look at it this way, with traditional marketing you can take out an ad on a local paper that will be seen by a limited audience, but with digital marketing you can post on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and much more, reaching a much broader audience with a much lower cost.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
