Presentation to Motherwell College Knowledge Transfer Hub called Social Media For Business: What you need to know
A high level presentation that demonstrates the breadth of opportunity the Social Media Mindset and principles offer organisations. The approach is used in order to avoid engagement with the subject through the limiting lenses of either the tools themselves which are inherently transient or the application of concept of Social Media as simply a marketing device and outwardly facing.
