and Jamie and me! 
Ever get jealous that the open, unstructured social media efforts of the community completely trounce your well-planned and even well-funded social media programs? Are you frustrated when your own social media efforts are thwarted by inter-departmental competition? These problems are common, and we can no longer blame them on people “not getting” social media. The blame actually lies in the way we run our organizations. In this session the authors of Humanize: How People-Centric Organizations Succeed in a Social World will explore how to create organizations that are more human, thus more compatible with social media.
Learning objectives:
1. Understand the subtle ways in which our organizational “best practices” have been sabotaging our social media efforts for some time now.
2. Understand a new framework for changing culture, process, and behavior in organizations in ways that is more aligned with the power of social media.
3. Begin to develop specific strategies for changing their own organization on at least one of those three levels.
Sound interesting? Come join me at Blogworld & New Media Expo New York on June 5, where Jamie and I will be presenting this session with a GREAT guest panelist – Amy Sample Ward, Membership Director at NTEN. We’ll be asking Amy to describe the many efforts her organization makes to be a truly human one.
