Andre de Abreu’s Summary

Journalist with 10 years experience in communication management focused on digital media, intangibles measurement and cost reduction.

I worked in multinationals companies like TAM Airlines and ABN Amro (Banco Real); as a consultant to Schering-Plough, Lush and Instituto Ethos (Ethos Institute) and have also worked as a lecturer on higher education (undergraduate and postgraduate) for 5 years.

Specialist title in multimedia journalism from Sao Paulo Pontifical Catholic University (PUC-SP) and a master degree in communication technologies and interactive networks in course from Sao Paulo University (USP), I research the use of digital media in the corporate discourse and the relationship of the new generations of employees and consumers (generations Y and Z) with the communication itself.

The balance between professional and academic work permits a more efficient and strategic communication approach, bringing a vast comprehension of the target's needs and characteristics.It also makes possible to show concrete results - by presenting data and statistics - which would justify the financial investments in communication.

I'm seeking opportunities in corporate and internal (employees) communication, corporate portals (intranets) and digital and social media management.

Andre de Abreu’s Specialties:

Corporate communication management, internal/employee communication, digital and interactive communication, portal and intranet management, communication for the new generations (generations Y and Z) and higher education teach.
