BMA-Milwaukee brings industry leader, Melanie Holmes, as keynote speaker to September event

Milwaukee, Wisconsin, September 11, 2012—In today’s competitive landscape, the approaches that B2B brands are adopting to develop more engaging, higher performing communications are rapidly changing. Melanie Holmes, vice president world of work solutions at ManpowerGroup, is recognized nationally for her insights on the ever-evolving trends related to this topic. As the inaugural event for BMA-Milwaukee’s 2012-13 programming, Ms. Holmes will present “How your personal brand can be a strategic driver for marketing success” on Thursday, September 13th.

To help B2B marketers apply this concept within their organizations, the presentation will center around three distinct topics; developing and growing your personal brand in an evolving marketing industry; understanding how your personal brand can be leveraged to help evolve your company’s marketing strategy; and how to ensure alignment between your personal brand and your company’s overall strategy plan.

“BMA-Milwaukee is proud to have secured such a dynamic speaker and industry professional like Ms. Holmes to speak to our association. She is going to definitely set the bar high for the rest of our program season with her professional candor and insights into personal branding from a globalized perspective” said chapter president, Siobhan Marks.
