Employer Branding Excellence – A Case Study Approach’ 5th edition

“Dear Colleagues 

The National Foods employer branding story was featured in the book ‘Employer Branding Excellence – A Case Study Approach’ 5th edition.

Please see attached an extract from the book which Celeste (in copy) shared with us. It’s a great story and even more than just a great story, we are really beginning to enjoy a return on the investment made. I also think the inclusion in the book takes our brand places. Well done Celeste and a big thank you.”
