Summary: What’s the difference between marketing and communications? In this episode, hosts Reed Smith and Chris Boyer discuss the definitions of each, and how in hospitals these definitions have often become muddled and intertwined, and how digital has forced these traditionally siloed departments to begin rethinking and retooling the way they work together. From trying to define who owns social media, to highlighting the differences between content marketing and brand journalism, are digital tools reshaping the way we integrate together? Featuring an expert interview with Matt Kucharski, president of Padilla, in which he shares his experience and thoughts on the difference between marketing and communications.
