Academic Research Can Go Almost Viral Too

Can a bad hair day nix your raise? Why is it risky to pitch an idea that is too perfect? These topics are headline fodder for stories about academic research by Stanford Graduate School of Business professors.
In this interactive conversation, we’ll share how we turn potentially dry academic studies into engaging stories, and deliver them on a multitude of publishing platforms, including our website, print magazine, and syndication partners, and to more than 230K Twitter followers. For those who find original content creation challenging, we’ll reveal how we work with faculty to retain academic rigor while telling stories that people want to read and share.
We’ll also discuss effective ways to extend the reach of your content via the web and social media, how to customize content for your own properties and mass media partners, and why it’s important to recycle stories. Don’t worry, we won’t leave out old-school print – we’ll share ways we continuously reinvent our magazine.
