STRENGTHS

Paula Berg specializes in social media strategy, integration, infrastructure, and crisis management.  Paula earned her public relations and social media stripes at Southwest Airlines, where she served as the company’s first Manager of Emerging Media, responsible for the development of the airlines’ acclaimed online communication and social media strategy.  She also led the airline’s six-person emerging media team.  From virtual riots and industry crises to employee relations and revenue generation, Paula has leveraged social media to successfully support company goals and meet customer expectations. But more than blogging, Tweeting, or Facebooking, she learned how to redesign outdated processes and infrastructure to truly revolutionize the business of communication.
