Alex Wheeler is the VP of Global Digital Marketing for Starbucks, one of the most global brands on the planet. At the Seattle Interactive Conference, I spoke with her about authenticity and participation. We also talked about the "networked" brand, a phrase Starbucks has coined to describe "connecting digital and physical into meaningful experiences" and also using their digital assets in a unique and differentiated way.

With over 40 million social followers, Starbucks has completely recharged and rebooted over the last couple of years, watch as Alex Wheeler explains their strategy.
