Talking Human-Centered Tactics with Dayana Kibilds

Dayana Kibilds sees content as a tool for equity, and strives to help students access the educational institutions they deserve to be a part of. She is also living for unapologetic joy and keeping her work in marketing and communications human-centered. Dayana, or Day, is strategy director at Ologie, an employee-owned marketing and branding strategy built for education. Prior to Ologie, Day led enrollment and digital innovation work at Penn State, Cornell and Western University in Ontario, Canada. Day is also the host of Enrollify's Talking Tactics podcast, and is co-authoring a book about email to be released in spring 2024.  From Mexico to Germany, Day’s career and homes have spanned the globe. And in this episode, we chat about them all. We’ll talk about making deliberate career choices and how she once left her job without a plan, how email is the ugly duckling of any communications or marketing mix, how her podcast Talking Tactics fills the gap she saw in higher ed, and a bit about how she is utilizing LinkedIn these days. Josie and the Podcast is a production of Dr. Josie Ahlquist and is produced by University FM. The show is also sponsored by Element451.   For all resources mentioned in this episode, head to https://www.josieahlquist.com/podcast/talking-human-centered-tactics-with-dayana-kibilds/ Mentioned in the episode: Element 451 Engage Summit  *Remember to use code JOSIE50 for an exclusive discount!* Ashley Budd Talking Tactics on Apple Podcasts Higher Ed Social Facebook group Dayana’s LinkedIn post - Her First Marketing Emails  Day’s 10 Days of Email on LinkedIn   Connect with Day: Dayana Kibilds - Ologie | LinkedIn Day (@kibilds) on Threads  Dayana Kibilds Ologie   Connect with Josie: LinkedIn Instagram Threads Twitter/X Facebook Website Email   Josie and the Podcast is on social too!
