What’s the best way to get employees talking about your business on social media? And is it worth doing? Are people influenced by what people say about their employers? Togethr’s Andrew Seel tells all about the value, tools, benefits and best approaches to employee advocacy.

Andrew is an accomplished expert in employee advocacy and social media. With a distinguished career that began at AOL, he navigated the landscape of early online communities. After founding one of the UK's first social media agencies, he identified the powerful potential of employees as brand advocates. This led to the launch of the first UK-based employee advocacy platform, Togethr. Working with well-known brands like John Lewis and Partners, BT, HSBC and the Post Office, Andrew’s passion is making digital communication more authentic and personal.
