Panel Discussion:
Devon Whiteway, Social Specialist, Havas Media
After graduating in 2011 with a degree in Business Management, Devon jumped headfirst into the world of social media. Challenge No. 1 was signing on to create the social strategy for one of Chicago’s least popular brands – Commonwealth Edison. Faced with a tiny budget, a culture that called Twitter “The Tweeter” and a Facebook wall plagued with negative comments, Devon had to put the cray in creative to turn things around. Since then, Devon worked tirelessly with a team of two to distinguish the brand. In just 3 years, ComEd’s page went from 176 Facebook followers, to a page with award winning social media campaigns and a nationally recognized approach to social crisis management and CEM. These successes garnered two company awards for Devon and lead to further company change. Today, Devon continues to apply her scrappy, small-team principles and bubbly personality to each new challenge at her new gig with Havas Media in Chicago.
Born and raised in Chicagoland, Devon is a self-proclaimed taco aficionado, closeted lover of classical music, and doggie mama to an 11 – year old rescued Shih Tzu named Pirate.
