Social Networking Webinar
FYI: I’m an “expert advisor” for the corporate social networking community and will be presenting on the following topic:
Title: Connectivity Powers Talent: Leveraging Employee Social Networks
When: Fri, Jul 18 2008 / 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM ET
According to a recent survey, 83% of workers rate relationships with co-workers as a critical reason for joining and staying with their employer, and alternatively, one in four people quit a job due to feelings of isolation. Organizations that provide talent with tools to connect, build and manage their personal and professional networks, bond people to each other and to the organization. Moreover, organizations that offer employee social networking have an edge in attracting talent who thrives on these tools to exchange knowledge and ideas.
During this webcast, you'll hear from leading Burton Group analyst Mike Gotta on how to:
Tap the power of online social networks to better engage your workforce Implement the tools to facilitate improved knowledge sharing across globally dispersed organizations Leverage employee social networks to increase job satisfaction, retention and innovation Create corporate social networks and communities for expertise location and knowledge sharing Build the business case for corporate social networking within your own organization.
