Robin Hamman, who is leaving business consultancy Headshift to join PR firm Edelman, as director of digital, explains why he’s enthusiastic and excited about the move, on his blog:
[I]f you’re not familiar with the thought leadership coming out of Edelman Digital, or the Edelman Insights, Case Studies, or the Global Peace Index and the Edelman Trust Barometer, do take a look – Edelman’s websites are a treasure trove of great content.
Hamman, who was head of blogging for the BBC before joining Headshift, is following the BBC’s former director of global media, Richard Sambrook who recently became Edelman’s first ever chief content editor.
Robin Hamman will be be speaking at Journalism.co.uk’s ‘grassroots’ media session at next week’s POLIS / BBC College of Journalism Value of Journalism (#VOJ10) conference (11 June 2010).
