Your boss wants to harness the power of social media to drive change and support business activities.  Leaders want new ways to reach out and engage in a challenging economic environment. Colleagues are clamouring to use these new tools and are threatening to bypass you by setting up their own platforms.

Social Media – the time has come for you to have a robust strategy that goes beyond the tools to deliver real business goals.

Let simply-communicate be your guide to social media for corporate communications.  simplysocialmedia is a brand new one day seminar featuring two of Europe’s leading practitioners: Silvia Cambié and Marc Wright.

Learn how to:

• develop and sell your social media strategy to senior executives
• identify new solutions within your organisation that deliver maximum impact for low cost
  
• populate networks and communities with compelling content
• drive projects and initiatives by creating dynamic interactions
  
• harness the power of social media internally as an engagement tool
• bridge gaps between generations
  
• use social media to recruit and retain your best staff
  
• understand the Social Media Triangle to help you build a robust strategy
  
• learn about the digital donut phenomenon which will revolutionise your content
• find out how SharePoint 2010 can be the basis for breathing new life into your intranet
  
• measure your ROI

With case studies from the public and private sectors you will see how to overcome the toughest obstacles to success - such as boosting adoption, driving the bottom line, bridging generational gaps, and integrating social media into the company's workflow.

The seminar includes a roadmap of steps for you to take, including how to staff and resource initiatives, map your stakeholders and plug into the voices of your frontline staff.

Next steps: Realising that to build up a team equipped with social media skills takes time, we will be offering a unique three week training course from our partners. Purely based on the ethos of social media in a closed loop space where your colleagues can get to grips with the new tools. Avoid those early social media hiccups. Find out more on 1st December.
