Topic

If you’ve never been to the gym before, you don’t expect miracles to happen to your muscles after just one or two weights sessions. Yet we don’t have the same attitude when it comes to introducing social technologies. Simply turning on an enterprise social network (ESN) is not a recipe for instant success.

The reality is, it’s just the start of the effort to embed social as a natural way of working. Like weight training in the gym, building enterprise social muscle requires a long-term commitment before you’ll see results.

Rita shares her insights to demonstrate what organisations can do to find their enterprise social muscles and deliver real business value through a social way of working.

Learning objectives:

  • recognise the signs people are – or aren’t – ready to try a new and visible way of working with social
  • understand why mobilising people around the real work of the business ignites a different way of working in your organisation
  • see the benefits of being a socially engaged leader, including harnessing social leaders as role models
  • like Madonna, learn how to reinvent the way you work and become a digital leader by making the most of enterprise social networking

When she’s not helping people find their social muscles, she’s a gym instructor, coaching people to build strength through weight training.
