Account Manager @ Kurogo | Creating Industry Leaders through Personal Branding

I eat, sleep and breathe FMCG and F&B brands.

And if I’m not doom-scrolling into the latest trend rabbit holes, I’m talking about it on LinkedIn.

The rest of the week, I’m an Account Manager specialising in driving strategic outcomes for clients through data-led insights and delivering high-impact marketing strategies.

To craft banging brand strategy, I:
👉🏻 Research (i.e. stalk) my clients and their industries until I know them better than they know themselves
👉🏻 Keep my finger on the pulse of what’s happening in their field
👉🏻 Genuinely root for them and their business 

That’s the mix I use for my clients, and so far I’ve achieved some pretty insane results across 20+ CEOs and Founders including:

- An inquiry from Dragon’s Den
- £700k angel investment directly attributed to LinkedIn 
- Features in podcasts, panels, publications

Ultimately, people buy from people.

Not dry, faceless brands.

NielsenIQ

When I joined NIQ’s Global Brand Marketing Center of Excellence, the mission was clear:
→ Strengthen and amplify global brand narrative in a crowded, competitive space.

So I led the charge, designing global social campaigns that aligned with our corporate narrative and amplified brand visibility across CPG and retail industries.

→ Rolled out employee advocacy initiatives that turned associates into brand ambassadors—driving 10–30x more visibility than corporate channels.
→ Scaled executive visibility and strengthened market positioning, leading to a 600% lift in impressions per post compared to benchmarks.
→ Linked social impact to business growth, achieving a 157% increase in webinar registrations, with 18% of sign-ups sourced directly from social media.

At NIQ, we don't just post. We build influence, drive demand, and grow our market leadership, one story at a time.

Senior Social Media Brand Manager | Global Brand Marketing

There wasn’t a true employer brand function when I joined NIQ, just fragmented efforts and a half-built EVP waiting for a bigger vision.

So I built it from the ground up:

→ Took a draft EVP and fully rolled it out across 100+ markets, embedding it across the candidate journey.
→ Designed and led training for 120+ recruiters, transforming them into brand storytellers through social selling and personal branding strategies.
→ Built and grew our social presence from scratch: driving a 150% YoY increase in career site traffic and a 33% YoY increase in applications.
→ Developed an HR brand architecture that raised Glassdoor reviews by 152% and improved our global rating from 3.8 to 4.0.

When NIQ merged with GfK, I led the employer brand integration, ensuring our combined story resonated across teams and markets.

Global Head of Employer Branding

Anna Bertoldini

Most professionals have the skills.

What they lack is a story that makes the world notice.

I coach ambitious professionals to build personal brands that turn LinkedIn views into career-defining opportunities.

→ Delivering 1:1 personal brand and career coaching, strategic personal brand frameworks, and LinkedIn optimization to help clients land promotions, leadership roles, and career pivots.
→ Leading workshops for corporate teams and communities like Engel & Völkers, Glovo, CHG Meridian, Les Amis, The Cover, LEAD Network, EGALA, and Danfoss to drive brand awareness and individual visibility.

Recognized as one of Influence Digest’s Top 15 Coaches in Barcelona in 2024, I believe that when your brand speaks, opportunities listen.

Glovo

When I joined Glovo, employer branding didn’t exist yet. No EVP, no talent marketing channels, and no unified message to candidates.

The challenge?
→ Build the employer brand function from scratch and position Glovo as a top global employer across competitive markets.

So I built it, fast and strategically:

→ Created and launched Glovo’s first global Employer Value Proposition (EVP) and rolled it out across markets.
→ Led the full redesign of our career site, improving functionality, content, and storytelling, driving 93% of applications through the site.
→ Built the @LifeAtGlovo brand from the ground up, launching a new social media presence and growing global visibility.
→ Designed candidate journeys that connected brand, culture, and experience across every touchpoint.

The results spoke for themselves:

→ Grew LinkedIn company followers by +72.5% in 2020 and +53% in 2021.
→ Reached a 4.9% average engagement rate, beating major competitors.
→ Elevated Glassdoor ratings from 4.1 to 4.4 through employee advocacy.
→ Supported business expansion across EMEA, LATAM, and Western Asia through targeted recruitment marketing.

This wasn’t just about campaigns. It was about becoming the voice of Glovo’s global brand and creating a story people wanted to be part of.

Global Employer Branding Specialist

BlackRock

When I joined BlackRock’s Talent Acquisition Strategy and Initiatives team, the mission was clear: strengthen the company’s reputation as a top employer globally.

The ask:

→ Create authentic narratives that showcased BlackRock’s inclusive, global culture.
→ Grow our social presence to recruit the best talent in key talent markets. 
→ Open a brand-new office in Atlanta with zero local brand recognition.

So I led employer branding campaigns that did exactly that:

→ Orchestrated targeted paid media campaigns to build a talent pipeline in Atlanta, combining data with storytelling to drive awareness and applications.
→ Partnered with creative agencies to develop editorial, video, and photography assets that captured the essence of BlackRock’s culture.
→ Contributed to the complete redesign of BlackRock’s career site, improving candidate experience and aligning the digital journey with the brand’s values.

The result?
A stronger employer brand presence, an energized new office launch, and global recognition.

Associate, Global Employer Branding

Intel Corporation

At Intel, I had the opportunity to bring data-driven marketing to life across EMEA markets.

My role:

→ Analyzed campaign performance data to uncover insights and optimize future marketing strategies.
→ Provided strategic recommendations that sharpened brand messaging and customer journey mapping.
→ Supported the planning and execution of the Intel Retail Executive Conference 2018—strengthening executive engagement across EMEA.

It wasn’t just about running campaigns. It was about refining how Intel connected with customers, more insightfully, and more effectively.

EMEA Marketing Strategy and Campaign Activation

WeAreDevelopers

WeAreDevelopers was poised for rapid growth, but their brand presence hadn’t caught up yet.

What was needed: 

→ Build a stronger B2B and B2C content strategy from the ground up.
→ Expand lead generation efforts and amplify event visibility.

I stepped in and:

→ Launched and managed WeAreDevelopers’ first employer branding blog, boosting B2B engagement and generating new business opportunities.
→ Led the content and social strategy for the WeAreDevelopers Conference 2017, an event hosting over 3,000 IT professionals and global tech giants.
→ Strengthened the company’s PR and online presence, setting a foundation for sustainable growth.

This role taught me early on: a strong brand voice, and the right story, can open doors at scale.

Content Manager

United States Department of Defense

Even at an early stage in my career, working at the U.S. Department of Defense in Vicenza, Italy, taught me critical lessons:

→ Precision matters.
→ Service excellence matters.
→ Communication matters, especially across cultures.

Serving both American and Italian communities, I delivered efficient, high-quality service with accuracy and professionalism every day.

Pathways Program Intern

ITSLIQUID Group

In Venice’s vibrant art scene, ITSLIQUID needed someone to connect artists with global audiences.

My mission was to expand the reach of international art exhibitions and amplify attendance.

I stepped in to:

→ Research, select, and connect with global artists for major exhibitions.
→ Organize exhibition openings and market events through strategic digital promotion.

Here, I first realized the power of storytelling to bridge industries, cultures, and communities, an insight I carried into every future role.

Marketing and Communications Intern

The Walt Disney Company

At Disney, delivering exceptional guest experiences wasn’t just encouraged, it was required.

As a Cast Member:

→ Delivered fast, thoughtful, and joyful service to an international guest base.
→ Trained in corporate communication, HR management, and cross-cultural awareness at Disney University.

Disney instilled in me something foundational: every experience is a story, and every interaction shapes it. 

It was a masterclass in high standards, positivity, and the importance of creating magical experiences, even in the small moments.

DISCLAIMER: Views and opinions expressed are my own and not those of current or previous employers or LinkedIn.

I’m in a meeting.

A senior manager is presenting. They are, without question, the most brilliant person in the room. I’ve read their brief, it’s sharp, insightful, and flawless.

But now, they're speaking. And they pause.
Just a beat too long.

I can see them searching, not for the idea (they have it), but for the word.

The "right" English word that will make them sound as sharp and credible as they actually are.

In that half-second, I see a flash of self-consciousness. And I see a few people in the room mentally check out.

THIS.

This is the silent tax of working in a non-native language.

We've been taught to equate polished fluency with intelligence. But really:

- Fluency doesn’t equal comfort.
- Speaking another language daily doesn’t mean you’ll sound as sharp as you actually are.
- Language is not intelligence.

If you’ve never had to mentally rehearse a simple thought before you dared to say it, that is an unacknowledged (and enormous) professional advantage.

Many people feel less confident, less articulate, or even less smart just because they’re communicating in a language that’s not their own.

So let’s normalize giving people more space and grace when they’re not using their native tongue.

Because their ideas might be just as powerful, they’re just being translated in real time.

Have you ever felt this, or seen it in action?

It took me 48 hours to figure this out, but it will save me hundreds of hours this year. And I'll explain how my new automation can do this for you too. 

So yes please be proud of me because I built my first (semi) complex automation yesterday on Make.com 😍 

Here's what I did:

I realized I was losing hours every week just transferring notes from calls into candid, personal follow-up emails. I wanted to be present with the person, not worrying about capturing every bullet point.

So, I built an automation to do it for me (for free).

Note: I use Google Workspace outside of my 9-5, for networking, consulting, etc. - so Gemini is omnipresent in all of my documents, emails, calls, and workflows now. So this applies to Google users.

Here is the exact workflow I built using Make.com:

1. When I use Google Meet for my calls, Gemini transcribes the call.

2. The trigger: that transcript automatically lands in a specific Google Drive folder named "Meet Transcripts" (it also gets sent to my email). 

3. I set up a scenario in Make that watches that folder. When a new file lands, it sends the text to Gemini to analyze the Google Doc with a specific prompt: "Summarize this conversation and write a warm, relevant follow-up email based on the action items."

4. Gemini knows my voice and crafts the email, but doesn't send it (that would be dangerous). Instead, I set it up so it creates a Draft in my Gmail.

The result: I finish a call. I grab a coffee. By the time I sit back down, a perfectly written draft is waiting for me. I tweak it to add my personal touch, and hit send.

Why does this matter? Follow-ups are important, they build trust. 

If you drop the ball on follow-ups, you're missing a huge opportunity. 

Automation doesn't replace the human connection, it removes the friction so you can actually maintain the connection.

It took me 48 hours to build this and lots of tests. Some paid tools do this but I wanted a free one, Make.com allows for up to 2 scenarios for free :)

I’m honestly so proud of this little system!!

Curious, what is the one "boring" task you wish you could automate right now?

I’ve secretly been moving differently on LinkedIn lately. This is why you should too.

No, I’m not chasing reach (in fact, that’s gone down). I’ve been working to train the algorithm.

Because LinkedIn dropped its new 360brew.

If you’ve missed it, it’s the platform’s biggest transparency drop yet. So here’s full breakdown of what actually drives reach, visibility, and engagement.

It’s not rewarding activity anymore. It’s rewarding coherence.

❌ The old game of feeding the machine won’t work anymore. 
✅ The new strategy is to write for the reasoning engine. 

And the key theme here is: coherence. Yes, consistency matters more than ever. 

Here’s what you can do:

1. Profile = your personal brochure.
Front-load your value. 
The information at the very top of your profile (headline, first paragraph of "About") has the most weight and is read first by the AI. Write these like an exec summary of your professional biography. 

2. Content = your case studies.
Every post teaches the AI who you are. Go deep, not broad.
Structure your logic, add data or lists to be more specific.

Blend 3 post types: credibility (authority), connection (human), conversion (value).

👀 If people pause on your content, even for three seconds, LinkedIn amplifies it.

3. Engagement = you’re now training the algorithm.
Stop liking randomly. Comments matter more, PLUS you need to leave thoughtful comments on (only) the topics you want to be known for.

That’s how you “teach” LinkedIn who to show your content to.

🔥 Warm up the feed 10 minutes before posting, it works.

Essentially, it’s less about performing and more about positioning now. 

Have you been training the new algorithm?

Brands aren't built in the cloud.

They're built in rooms, with people.

That was my big takeaway from Camping TV's "Honest Marketers" meetup last week.

I met some incredible people, played a fun quiz run by the awesome Olga Andrienko, and enjoyed a night of true connection with Rubén Llorach and his fantastic team.

IRL is back (I hope long-term!)

The spontaneous laughs, the nuance you get from a shared look that you can't get from an emoji... we need more of this.

We spend so much time trying to engineer community and personal brands in a comments section, but real connection, the foundation of all good business, is built in person.

Companies like Camping TV and workfully here in Barcelona get it. They create branded spaces for people in the industry to connect, share, and interact with the brand without selling.

This is the new scalable model. The metrics aren't just vanity. They're trust, connection, and long-term relevance.

That is the entire point.

Huge thanks to the team for creating that space.

What's your take? Are in-person events becoming more or less critical in 2025?

You are thinking about your audience all wrong.


Social media forces us to obsess over numbers. 
We see "500 followers" and think it is small. 
We see "1,000" and think it is not enough.

This obsession makes us forget the truth. Those are not numbers. 

They are people.

Let me help you see what you really have. Look at the visual I am sharing with this post. It puts these numbers in the real world.

500 people is a packed theater.
1,000 people fill a massive concert hall.
3,000 people is a full arena.
10,000 people is a stadium.

Picture yourself on that stage. Suddenly, the number does not feel so small. It feels like a huge responsibility. It feels like a privilege.

This is what it means to build a brand. You are not posting into a void. 
You are speaking to a room full of real humans.

Every post is a presentation. Every comment is a conversation. Every single follower is an individual. A person who raised their hand and chose to listen.

Your audience is not a metric to be hacked. It is a community to be served.

Stop counting. Start connecting.

🔒 Save this post as a reminder that your audience is listening.

Visualizing crowds

You cannot read the label when you are inside the jar.

I see brilliant leaders and organizations struggle to articulate their value, not because they lack it, but because they are too close to it.

If you are feeling misaligned or unheard, it is usually a narrative problem.

People frequently come to me for advice on exactly this, from personal brand building on LinkedIn to broader employer brand and executive comms strategy.

So, I wanted to open up my time to help you navigate it.

I am sharing very limited 1:1 advisory spots on Hubble to help you sharpen that narrative.

This is for you if you are ready to stop guessing and start operating with intention.

I can help you with:

- Translating your real-world experience into a strong LinkedIn presence
- Structuring corporate storytelling that actually moves people
- Develop an employee advocacy or executive communications strategy
- Career positioning to figure out your next move and how to get there

So excited for this!

Ok, raise your hand if you've ever been the "fuzzy meeting person." 
🙋‍♀️ 🙋‍♀️ 🙋‍♀️ 
 
I’d schedule sessions with no clear agenda, no defined outcome, basically, “let's chat and figure it out.” 

I’d leave half-exhausted, half-confused, thinking: "Did anything just get decided? Who’s doing what? Could this have been an email?"

Probably everyone else thought that too. Waste of time. 

It took me a while, but I realized: the problem wasn’t the team. It was me. My meetings lacked clarity + intent.

So I decided to get scientific about it. I started analyzing my meeting transcriptions with CoPilot. I wanted to see:

- How much time I spent talking vs listening
- How often I stated an explicit decision
- Where confusion or rambling crept in

The results were… eye-opening. I wasn’t just scheduling fuzzy meetings, I was enabling them.

Here’s the system I built to fix it:

Step 1. Define the single purpose (SO IMPORTANT)
Every meeting needs a north star: “By the end, what should people know, decide, or do?”

Step 2. Structure the agenda around outcomes
List topics → assign a single desired outcome + time limit.

Step 3. Prep key points, lead with decisions
Skip long-winded context. Deliver the decision first, context second.

Step 4. Track your talk ratio
Use AI to see if you’re dominating or clarifying. Adjust accordingly.

Step 5. End with explicit next steps
Who does what, by when. No assumptions.

Step 6. Follow up in writing
1–2 bullets summarizing decisions + assigned owners (you can do this with AI). Send within 24 hours.
I also send transcripts if necessary. 

The transformation? Meetings went from draining and fuzzy → purposeful, productive, and trust-building. 

My coworkers leave knowing exactly what to do, and I finally stopped wondering why work wasn’t getting done. People like me more (hopefully?). 

Also, generally reduced my meeting frequency by 20ish%. Effectiveness frees us time, who knew. 

Moral: meetings are time, money, and trust. If people feel like you schedule fuzzy meetings, they'll be less committed. Use those steps to focus more on your clarity and intent. 

How do you make meetings more effective?
