Transitioning - Traditional Communications to Social Communications
Look for opportunities to introduce social communications Event promotion, membership drives, student recruitment, networking
Embrace your existing audience / members Look at staff / members backgrounds for areas of interest
Seek out and invite ‘early adopters / eager learners’ to join movement Personally invite individuals to join your “working group”
Nurture top leaders / influencers to become conversant in social tools It’s lonely at the top! Help a Financial Services Leader Learn Social Today!
Become working partners with your legal and compliance teams Work with your legal and compliance partners in this evolving space
Recognize sponsors who are in the social communications space Do you know if your key clients / sponsors use social? follow / engage them; show you are listening and ‘get it’
Celebrate early successes Advertise internally / externally social milestones
Continue to advocate / Change when needed
Vision / Leadership / Patience
