Description

Social media poses some important new challenges for the internal communicator. On the one hand, the influx of new communications platforms has the potential of transforming how organizations work and communicate. On the other hand, as conversation channels expand and are available to everyone in an organization, how do you keep key messages from being diluted, and the corporate culture intact? Bottom line, what should the role of internal communications be in the age of social media? This panel continues the opening keynote discussion started at the Communitelligence Employee Engagement, HR & Social Media 2010 Conference in Chicago. Join this critical conversation and make sure you and your program stay relevant in this new age of internal communications. Learning Topics:

  • Key steps to ensure you and your department remain relevant and have the right impact.
  • The role you should be playing: what is new and what remains the same
  • Why clarity of message has become more critical with the decentralization of communication.
  • What key skills communicators have that are the best antidote to obsolescence
  • What are the best antidotes to obsolescence?
  • “Excellent session! Worth the time investment!”
  • “Excellent high-level view.”
  • “I learned how important it is to know your intenal audience.”
  • “The Avoiding Extinction piece by Cathi Killian was great.”
  • “The greatest single benefit was learning about specific tools that were being using by other companies such as Yammer for “employee jams” and thinking like an intern by hiring a teenager.”
