Smart brands are activating employees to reach new audiences in social, extend the reach of organic content and humanize their brand. Many refer to this as employee advocacy. We call it employee storytelling and the reason is simple - employees tell better stories than you do. Their voices are trusted among their peers and they already participate in industry conversations with your customers.
In this presentation, learn why employee advocacy is a critical piece of your marketing stack, understand the data that proves this and find out how to develop a communications blueprint that will help launch an effective program.

How to Integrate Employee Advocacy Into Your Marketing StrategyLinkedIn
Marketers today can achieve more by expanding beyond one channel or approach to reach and engage consumers and prospects. One important tool is employee advocacy: empowering employees to share content with their social networks.
You don't have to start from scratch. Leverage the work you're already doing to set up your employee advocacy program.
LinkedIn APIs: leverage content and connections from within your site or app
Leverage LinkedIn’s professional audience and platform across your other digital channels with a range of APIs and plug-ins to deepen engagement with your audience and share content across our network.
From inviting members to sign up to your site using their LinkedIn login credentials, through to leveraging select areas of the LinkedIn identity to deliver relevant content, plugging in LinkedIn feeds to your site, and inviting them your users to share updates across the LinkedIn platform: we offer developers powerful options for leveraging our content and connections whilst keeping users on your site.
To add a LinkedIn plugin to your site or app, visit developer.linkedin.com to generate the required code and add it to the source code of your site or app. The LinkedIn Certified Developer Program (CDP) makes it easy to engage developers certified to work with LinkedIn data, who are trained and supported by LinkedIn. And we offer options for working with a broader range of developers as well.

How Thought Leadership Impacts Demand GenerationLinkedIn
What makes thought leadership valuable and how does that translate into measurable business impact? New research from LinkedIn and Edelman provide definitive answers for B2B marketers.
Many of us intuitively know that thought leadership is valuable, but how valuable is it, and at what stages of the buying journey does it deliver impactful results?
Kelly Kyer, Global Director, Technology Vertical Marketing at LinkedIn and Phil Gomes, SVP of U.S. B2B Digital at Edelman explore these questions, and:
-- Dive into key findings from our latest research surveying 1,300 business decision-makers and C-suite executives on how thought leadership influences their own purchase behavior.
-- Present compelling data that justifies the value of thought leadership, especially when marketers today underestimate its value to the bottom line.
-- Propose how to take action and craft compelling content that keeps clients and prospects aware of industry trends.

Brand Ambassadorship?
The brand advocacy that employees display to how far they act like people who know, love and spontaneously ‘sell’ the brand

Never underestimate the power of a strong brand

It is relatively easy to launch countless innovations in terms of product development, pricing, promotion or distribution sites.

Provided that a company takes the time it needs and has sufficient funds, it is relatively easy to launch countless innovations in terms of product development, pricing, promotion or distribution sites.

It is much easier and cost effective to build a strong brand if a company has an entire army of employees flying their organization’s flag, defending it with heart and soul – those are true brand ambassadors.

Who is a brand ambassador?

The 3 Ambassador Dimensions:
- INTELLECTUAL DIMENSION
- EMOTIONAL DIMENSION
- BEHAVIORAL DIMENSION
What affects the decision to become an ambassador?
- Length Matters!
- The problem is the mid-range group
- What’s your favorite position?
- Beauty gets attention Personality gets the heart
Stimulating & boosting brand ambassadorship
- Internal advertising
- Research
Who leads the brand ambassadorship program?
- HR
- Communication
- Marketing
Four things to remember
- Good brand ambassadors need to know what the brand’s values are and what they entail.
- There are three dimensions in ambassadorship: the intellectual dimension, the emotional dimension and the behavioral dimension.
- Employees who have only just been hired and senior team members rank the highest as brand ambassadors.
- If a company wants to turn its employees into real brand ambassadors, it needs to invest in internal ‘advertising’ & communication campaigns, just like the ones aimed at customers.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
