Not-for-profits are taking advantage of social media’s ability to facilitate and expand their impact by combining an organisational strategy with their professional online networks to connect, build relationships and establish trust and thought leadership. This way of operating goes beyond simply using tools like Facebook or Twitter and requires a networked mindset where openness and being ‘data-informed’ are essential. This interactive presentation will explore how not-for-profit leaders can improve their organisation’s social media use and embrace best practices of a networked not-for-profit, including measurement and learning, and avoiding some of the pitfalls and challenges.

We’re exposed to so much video today, viewers no longer have the time or patience for the bad stuff. If you’re video’s not good, it’s gone – and so is all the time and money you spent shooting and promoting it.
