They are shaped by the relationships people experience with an organization where they live\, work\, and gather. \nAt the September Social Media Breakfast Houston\, Juan Alanis\, Senior Manager of Community Relations at Walmart\, will share how Walmart supports local stores as they build relationships within their communities. \nJuan works across Dallas\, Houston\, and Louisiana\, helping stores connect with schools\, nonprofits\, government groups\, neighborhood organizations\, and other local partners. \nWalmart provides training\, resources\, programs\, and brand guidance while giving store teams room to make decisions based on local needs. That balance offers useful lessons for organizations of many sizes. \nThis session will look at how community engagement can support brand trust\, visibility\, participation\, and stronger local relationships. \nFor marketers\, communicators\, nonprofit leaders\, consultants\, and small business owners\, the challenge is familiar. A brand needs consistency\, but successful local relationships depend on people who understand the community around them. \nJuan will share what Walmart has learned from supporting this work across hundreds of stores and how attendees can adapt those principles to their own organizations. \nWhat You Will Learn: \n\nHow to make community engagement part of an ongoing brand and communications strategy\nWays to give local teams useful guidance while preserving their ability to respond to local needs\nHow to evaluate partnerships based on community fit\nWays organizations can use existing resources and local relationships to increase participation and visibility\nHow communications and local social channels can extend work already happening in the community\n\n \nREGISTRATION \nSpace is limited. Please reserve your spot in advance so we can plan for breakfast and seating. \n \nSPEAKER \nJuan Alanis\, Senior Manager\, Walmart Community Relations \nJuan Alanis is a Senior Manager of Community Relations at Walmart\, supporting communities across Dallas\, Houston and Louisiana. In his role\, he works at the intersection of community engagement\, communications and business strategy\, building partnerships and programs that strengthen Walmart’s connection with the communities it serves. Juan is particularly focused on using local insights and storytelling to help teams work smarter\, communicate more effectively\, and create meaningful community impact. \nWebsite \nLinkedIn \n \nDETAILS \n📅 Date & Time: Friday\, September 11\, 2026\, 8:30 AM – 10:30 AM (9:00 AM online) \n📍 Location: The Ion\, 4201 Main Street\, Houston\, TX 77002 \n🚗 Parking: Red Lot– Enter 4203 Fannin Street for direct access.
