Being a Professional Working Dad at a Fortune 500 Company

John Stancliffe is a 15 year veteran in the digital space, currently as Social Media Manager for AT&T Business and tells us about what life is like working at a big company.  Resources, access to mentorship and leaders is a tremendous form of growth.

Want to be an entrepreneur without the risk? You can have a lot of creative freedom inside a large organization as an intrapreneur.  John gives his thoughts on how he’s had this mindset throughout.

We discuss building employee advocates out of the workforce.  Empowering people with skillset and permissions to build their personal brands on social and advocate for the brand.

You might be reluctant as a brand but you’re sitting on an army of support!  Why hire a bunch of influencers when you have such a great team?

We then chat about being a dad and in the workforce.

It’s great to be at a solid company when you have a family and have little turnover when you go home at the end of the day and not have to worry about going back into the office.

John is building a platform talking about how to balance your work and still be a parent.  He’s even interviewed Chris Gardner, the man who’s life was the basis of the book/film The Pursuit of Happyness about this.

We end talking about using social in B2B.  It’s an H2H Human to Human play.
