This is a show about culture and society, crisis and social media.

Host, Dom Hawes, is joined by Charlotte Lander, Director, Social Media, Corporate Affairs, Brand & Marketing at Standard Chartered Bank. They talk reputation, social media - the threats and opportunities it brings, but ostensibly today they’re talking about culture and society… it’s the S in your PEST analysis.

Charlotte was one of the co-authors of a peer-reviewed paper in Journal of Digital & Social Media Marketing and has recently conducted and analysis of social media’s role in the sudden and dramatic demise of Silicon Valley Bank and Credit Suisse.

In this show she shares her findings and offers practical advice and best practice, guided by the content of the peer-reviewed paper and her career’s experience to date.
