In today's market, trust is an important currency that impacts relationships and the bottom line. To build trust, it is imperative to connect and resonate with people on an emotional level. The PRSA San Francisco Chapter is proud to bring in world-renowned speaker and branding expert Alan Hilburg to speak with senior leaders and their guests about "Emotional Branding: Using Communications to Build Relationships, Drive Loyalty and Win.”

PR professionals not only launch and protect brands... they convey their own. This year’s Thought Leaders Forum will explore—at a high level—new skills, new lenses and new knowledge behind brand resonance and understanding the human side of branding as a connective bridge with peers and a competitive tool in business. Learn what motivates CEOs and leadership teams, what causes them to stop listening and what can you do as a professional to become a voice that people respond to and trust.
