Event: Social Media for Project Managers

I’ll be presenting to the APM’s Women in Project Management SIG on 10 June, and you are invited.

We’ll be talking about how project managers can use social media.  I’ll be presenting this:

There’s a revolution happening in project management: social media tools are finding their way from branding and marketing to the hub of companies and project teams that are making new things happen. The old project management methodologies are being challenged by the fact that those working on projects are using social media tools to communicate and collaborate, and the ways in which we work with colleagues and virtual teams have changed forever. Not everyone agrees with that, though, and convincing management that you want to adopt social media tools for productivity gains can be difficult.

This session will look at the theory and practice of using social media tools to get things done in business. Is it hype or do these tools actually work? And how do you get started with a project-based social media initiative in your own company?

It doesn’t matter where you are, this is a virtual event (and it’s free) so you can come along if you want to.  Find out more and book for the event here.
