How do you take a struggling employee advocacy program with no budget, no tool, and little buy-in and turn it into huge ROI? Alex Her joins Lewis Gray and Emma Powney to share the full journey.

Alex reveals the grassroots tactics that got people on board, from starting with a simple Slack channel to gamifying participation and celebrating wins company-wide. He explains how earned media value became his go-to metric for proving ROI and how he scaled the program globally while keeping it authentic.

The conversation dives into why culture trumps tools, how to get leadership buy-in with hard numbers, and how AI can help employees create more personal, engaging posts. Whether you’re starting an advocacy program from scratch or looking to breathe new life into an existing one, Alex’s insights will give you both inspiration and actionable steps.
