29. “Most people, when
given the opportunity,
will advocate for their
brands, when they feel
good about where
they work.”
Advologues
In fact, many of the employee engagement initiatives you already have in place to help your employees “feel good
about where they work” could provide fodder for employee advocacy.

Relevant, Timely
and Purposeful
content”
“The age of social media
has changed how we’ve
gone about recruiting
talent. We don’t own
employer brand. It’s owned
by the perception of an
internal and external
audience.”
