Laura will be the first of four speakers featured in the online session from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on May 25, 2011.

Laura will discuss an immersive approach to uncovering brand opportunities. The path to greater brand resonance requires marketers to understand the myriad ways that consumers relate to and experience their brand, product or service. She will explain how an authentic observational framework may be used to tackle complex strategic marketing issues. This framework goes beyond traditional research approaches, leveraging the principles of cultural anthropology and a creative combination of research methods to understand the brand category in new ways within the full context of consumers' lives.
