Dr Dan Woodason DBA, MSc, BA, FHEA
Course Leader and Senior Lecturer
Summary
Having had a broad, rewarding, and challenging 20 years in and around the world of marketing, I returned to education to study for my Masters degree at Sheffield Hallam University (SHU) in 2009. I have spent the last 14+ years embedding myself in the academic realm of the Sheffield Business School (SBS) here at SHU, becoming course leader in 2015.
About
My path to Sheffield Hallam has been the fruition of a diverse and successful career in campaign/marketing/brand and event management, which has included strategic, creative, stakeholder, communications, and PR roles and responsibilities.
I have a wealth of experience gained in different sectors, from a self-employed entrepreneur to an internationally renowned promotions organisation, a brand-licensing company, a national communications agency, and a complex public sector organisation before joining Sheffield Hallam.
I am still involved with external marketing agencies alongside my SBS day roles and recently completed my Doctorate relating to young consumers, values, marketing, and CSR.
