Story-Driven Employer branding –Beyond Flashy Campaigns
The New Paradigm Shift In Employer Branding
Transforming How We Connect With Talent
Too many companies rely on generic recruitment marketing, flashy campaigns, and empty slogans—yet they still struggle to attract and retain the right talent. In today’s saturated talent market, employer branding campaigns like these fail because they rely on short-term bursts of visibility rather than building lasting employer brand affinity.
Story-Driven Employer Branding
In Story-Driven Employer Branding, employer branding expert Susanna Rantanen introduces The Magnetic Employer Branding Method™, a revolutionary approach that replaces outdated tactics with storytelling, strategy, and the science of persuasion to build a brand that talent genuinely wants to be part of.
Talent is the hero, not the employer
At the heart of this method is a perspective shift: talent is the hero, not the employer. Companies must step into the role of the trusted guide, helping talent navigate their careers, find purpose, and grow. Through practical frameworks, case studies, and neuroscience-backed insights, this book provides a strategic, long-term process for employer branding that goes beyond recruitment—turning employer brands into movements that inspire, engage, and retain top talent.
"If your content doesn't move hearts, it won't move careers either."
Readers will learn
- How to craft an employer brand story that connects with talent on a deeper, emotional level
- Why employer branding isn't a campaign but an ongoing communication process
- How to align company culture and employee experience to create an authentic, trust-driven brand

With compelling storytelling, research-driven insights, and immediately actionable strategies, Story-Driven Employer Branding transforms how companies approach employer branding—helping them win sustainable attention, build employer brand affinity, and turn talent into loyal brand ambassadors.
"Stop marketing your vacancies; start marketing the life your talent dreams of living."
