What happens when an employee has more followers and social clout than the organisation they work for? It's becoming increasingly common as people carve out "personal brands" - but does this cause friction or create opportunities for the brand they work for?

In this episode I speak to Stephen Kenwright, COO and Co-Founder, Rise at Seven. Taking the digital agency scene by storm, Rise at Seven have grown from 0 - £1.5 million turnover in one year, winning briefs from brands including Pretty Little Thing, Missguided, ODEON, USwitch, GoCompare, GAME and more.

Some of their impressive growth is down to their team's social presence, especially on platforms Twitter. I ask Stephen how the strategy of leveraging employee influencers has led to business wins and how he feels brands can and should empower their people to be active and vocal across social media (yes, I do ask what happens when someone tweets something "off-brand")!

Also for people looking to build their own professional profiles, Stephen shares his top tips on how to get yourself out there and build a personal brand.
