As part of SNAC’s ongoing efforts to provide professional development opportunities to our members, we are pleased to once again partner with Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University to bring you Elevating Marketing Excellence in Changing Times—a fully immersive, virtual program showcasing the next generation of marketing knowledge, skills and capabilities that will have the most impact on your organization’s success. Based off attendee feedback, this year’s program will focus on new perspectives of marketing, visual communication, and the power of prediction to drive business results.
This program is designed exclusively for 50 SNAC Member company marketing and sales managers and directors who are inspired to elevate their skills to come out ahead in times of market disruption and change. This program will address three key areas:
Monday, July 25 | 12:30 – 4:30 PM ET
SESSION 1
New Perspectives of Marketing
Greg Carpenter
Tuesday, July 26 | 1:00 – 4:30 PM ET
SESSION 2
Visual Communication
Kelly Cutler
Today’s digital world is flooded with visual communication and marketers can benefit greatly from understanding how people perceive messages and the application of creative approaches. In this session we’ll explore visual thinking, information design, and storytelling and apply this knowledge to create improved business communication including brand identity, presentations, advertisements, and data visualizations. Participants will leave with key concepts and tools for effective visual communication and meaningful storytelling through advertisements, presentations and more. (No designer experience required!)
Wednesday, July 27 | 1:00 – 4:30 PM ET
SESSION 3
The Power to Predict: Strengthening Your Insight Muscle
Gina Fong
This highly interactive, collaborative, and actionable session teaches participants how to distinguish insight from data and condense it in a way that can help marketers anticipate customers’ actions and drive business results. Through a series of exercises and case studies participants will develop a framework for discerning and distilling insight in a way that creates a deeper understanding of their customers.
The program has a very limited capacity of 50 participants. SNAC Business Members may register up to (2) participants, and SNAC Associate Members may register (1) participant—all others will be placed on a waiting list.
Since there is limited availability, to register, you must commit to participating in the entire program, all three afternoons, with your camera on to fully participate. Certificates will not be granted to anyone not able to participate 100%. We are cognizant that this program will run during the workday and request you block your calendar and turn your out of office on during that time.
