Event Details

Who Should Attend?
If you have been tasked to drive your organisation's social media efforts and are trying to figure out how to approach the issue, this is for you. You do not need to have a technical background but we would recommend a good dose of enthusiasm to learn and share with other social media practitioners regarding their successes as well as issues they faced when implementing social media strategies.
The objective of infoCommUnity is to use Social Media to provide impetus for organisational change that can drive internal engagement with members / employees and external engagement with people / customers. This workshop will also provide a platform to gather support for meaningful causes, including developing a best practice code such as a digital quotient for organisations.
Workshop 1 will be held on 18 January 2012 and Workshop 2 on 21 March 2012. These workshops will culminate in an infoCommUnity Convention on 21 May 2012.
