Ep.11 The secret of influence through storytelling

Once upon a time, a California girl went to China and started the greatest adventure of her life…

An entrepreneur based in Shanghai and the COO of the N°1 LinkedIn Marketing Agency, Genius Group, Tamar Hela helps Fortune 500 companies generate leads through LinkedIn.

As the Co-President of LinkedIn Local Asia, she's created a network of communities made up of LinkedIn lovers, embracing the original idea of LinkedIn Local: getting to know ‘’the person behind the profile’.’

Her Shanghai community has more than 3000 members, making it one of the most professional and active networks in China, recognized by LinkedIn China.

Tamar also teaches the next generation of digital marketers as a Professor at Emlyon Business School, showing them what it's really like and how to apply real-life practices to marketing rather than theoretical nonsense.
