Join us for an interesting, behind-the-scene peek at how one of Texas' most successful companies does Employee Communications.

Bring a notepad and come prepared to take lots of notes as Kate Rogers, H-E-B Chief Communications Officer, talks about
  • Driving employee engagement through multiple communication channels

  • Development of our Employer Brand – Because People Matter

  • Creating and sustaining a culture of service and appreciation – Partner Recognition

  • Development & management of PartnerNet – our web-based portal

  • Connecting employees through technology/ creative ways to use internal social media

  • Measurement and Results
And, clearly, everything in Houston will be better on that day as IABC Houston returns to Brennan's after a long absence. Brennan's is better, more beautiful than ever! They're thrilled to welcome us back, and we can't wait to be there! Join us for this very special return "home."
 
Finally, we are ever so grateful to the AWESOME team at Schipul, the Web Marketing Company, for sponsoring this event. These guys have been a primary source of programming for us over the years, taught a lot of us most of what we know about social media, and are an awesome business partner. Thanks to all!
