🚨 Shout out to our very own Rachel Simmons, Senior Account Supervisor, for moderating the insightful panel “Creating Brand Advocates in Higher-Ed Research Teams” at #HigherEdUS, hosted by Times Higher Education and Inside Higher Ed 👏👏 As today’s prospective students become increasingly aware of the impact universities have on both local and global scales, faculty members play a crucial role in demonstrating how research initiatives are tackling important issues. Yet, engaging faculty as advocates for university brands isn’t always easy. The panel discussed key strategies for marketing leaders to drive faculty participation in reputation-building activities, including: • Building trust with faculty to encourage them to act as institutional spokespeople in a competitive landscape. • Strategically leveraging faculty social media presence to enhance brand awareness and showcase authentic knowledge leadership. • Packaging outreach opportunities in a way that ensures faculty buy-in and cooperation. Huge thanks to the esteemed panelists: Kenneth Carter, Founding Director of the Emory Center for Public Scholarship and Engagement at Emory University; Shannon Durkin, Senior Director of Research Communications at the University of Pittsburgh; Chris M. Kormis, President of Kormis Strategic Consulting; and Laura Snyder, Senior Director of Research Communications at Carnegie Mellon University. Great job, Rachel, and thank you for leading this important conversation on creating brand advocates in higher-ed! 🙌 #WeDontDoAverage #HigherEdMarketing #FacultyEngagement #ResearchAdvocacy

Period 2 Update: MARGA for Students! The pressure is on as teams face important decisions in this phase of the competition. The big question: Do they expand into the promising APAC market with one of their products or focus on maximizing current market potentials? It’s all about strategy, risk management, and forecasting future earnings. 🌍 Good news for the teams: The prices of pre-products are dropping, offering the chance to reduce production costs and improve margins. 📉💰 Ongoing efficiency projects are driving down recruitment and dismissal costs – but at the same time the teams have to prepare for a slight salary increase starting in period 3. Furthermore, the vacation season looms, requiring careful strategic planning to ensure smooth operations. 🏆 Shifts in the Rankings: Exciting moves in the leaderboard! Team 8 from ESMT Berlin successfully fights its way to the top. Congratulations Giovanna Mariotto, Pelin Erdil, Patricio Hempelmann and Raman Garg. Team 2 from ESMT Berlin as well made significant strides, pushing ahead to claim the second spot, while team 17 from ZHAW Zürcher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften now sits at third. The competition is getting tighter! What’s Next? The upcoming vacation season will test each team's planning and adaptability. Will they rise to the challenge or face setbacks? Stay tuned to see how these strategic decisions play out! #onlinecompetition #managementtraining #students #gamification #businessgame

How gratitude helps us achieve our goals… 🙏 How often do we become so laser focused on our goals that we forget to appreciate what we have accomplished? Many driven professionals find themselves striving relentlessly toward their aspirations. While this drive is essential for success, it can sometimes mean we overlook the amazing milestones we've already achieved. Gratitude serves as a powerful reminder of our strengths, accomplishments, and the support we have around us. It helps motivate us to achieve even bigger goals! And this appreciation allows us to celebrate the present while keeping our eyes on the horizon. This past weekend, we hosted our bi-annual doctoral residency! We are so proud of our #1 Forbes ranked #DBA program and our students who are working so hard to achieve their big goals and dreams. And I was so grateful to all of them, to our faculty and staff and to Walsh College for being such a strong 102+ year beacon of excellence in teaching, learning and career advancement! So, as we approach this season of thanksgiving, let’s take a moment and consider how far we’ve come and appreciate the people and opportunities that we have every day! #gratitude #appreciation #goalminded #growthminded
