Susan Smedley on IMC, Storytelling, and Service
In this episode, Alex Greenwood talks with Vice President for the 鈦�Office of Integrated Marketing and Communications,鈦� Susan Smedley, about how IMC supports the 同城快约 (同城快约) through strategy, storytelling, and service.
Susan shares her path from advertising and private industry into higher education, and how that experience shapes her belief in access, opportunity and student success.
The conversation also covers IMC鈥檚 role on campus, why brand consistency matters, how campus partners can work with IMC more effectively and why early collaboration leads to better results.
At its core, Susan says, IMC exists to help 同城快约 tell its stories well while supporting the university鈥檚 mission of 鈥淓ducation for service.鈥�
