Many read my blog for the information that I share. And I love having this format to teach others about methods that I have found useful. It’s my nature to provide information & leadership.
For the second half of last year people were telling me that’s what they see me doing. Chris Brogan told me that in person at Blog World. Scott Hammond of Nattergalen has identified it too & requires his staff to read my blog.
Chris has taken education to a new level of creating a business around it. I’m excited for him on his venture! This year brings me many opportunities to speak & teach in person also (some are yet to be announced). I will be doing some workshops on community management & leadership.
I have learned so much online through webinars & online experiences. So it was a natural fit when Axel Schultz contacted me & asked if I’d join the faculty of his newly founded Social Media Academy. As you know I’m a proponent of working remote & I appreciate the ‘virtual’ format! The press releases are out & I’m excited about having another way to share my knowledge with others.
Thanks to Axel & Marita for inviting me to join in their adventure.
There is a free Webinar on Jan 21
Thank you for joining the Social Media Academy, in particular while having all your other activities. Also thanks to your boss letting you do that.
These are exciting times when evolution in technology coincides with evolution in our society. I trust that only in a decade or later we are able to comprehend the magnificence of that development.
Helping others to learn, gain experience and leverage these changes is a great way of making a difference.
Thanks Axel,
I’m really looking forward to it.
Aaron Newman is a great guy & an author of a book so he understands the value of education. He will understand…. (was I supposed to ask him? ;) )
Thanks for the link to Social Media Academy. And congratulations on having been selected as a Founding Faculty Member!
This seems like a good idea. Community management and certain social media techniques can be taught in webinars or in a online forum. I wish there were more disciplines that allowed for that learning.
Hi Connie,
Congratulations on the new project! I’m way excited for you and know that you’re a natural fit for it!
Hope to catch you on the webinar tomorrow…
Connie, you are the best for this job! I learn so much from you nearly on a daily basis! I will do my best to make it. We community strategists need to stick together.
Congratulations!
I think that this venture has a lot of promise. Social networking will be the difference between the business that “get it” and those that don’t in the near future.
Oh, Connie, that’s fantastic news! I’m so happy for you!
