We’re excited to announce Keynote speaker Denise Lee Yohn (USA).
Ms. Yohn initially cultivated her brand-building approaches through several high-level positions in advertising and client-side marketing. She served as lead strategist at advertising agencies for Burger King and Land Rover and as the marketing leader and analyst for Jack in the Box restaurants and Spiegel catalogs. She went on to head Sony Electronic Inc.’s first ever brand office, where she was the vice president/general manager of brand and strategy and garnered major corporate awards. She has run her own firm as an independent consulting partner since 2004. Ms. Yohn wrote the bestselling book “What Great Brands Do: The Seven Brand-Building Principles that Separate the Best from the Rest” (Jossey-Bass) and the new book “Extraordinary Experiences: What Great Retail and Restaurant Brands Do.”
