Say Hello to New #ESNchat Mini Decks

By

By Shannon Abram, Relationship Manager at The Community Roundtable.

Last month when we were given stewardship of the very popular #ESNchat Twitter chat we were buzzing with ideas. So many topic ideas, content wish lists and engagement activities came to mind that we were instantly overwhelmed. First and foremost our goal is the preserve the vibrant and engaged community that Jeff has built over the last year.

With a month of #ESNchats under our belt we are excited to share the first of these new content initiatives – #ESNchat Mini Decks. While the weekly Storify recaps are a great, totally immersive ESN experience for those that may have missed the chat, or an attendee who wants to double-check something that was shared, they can be very long (often weighing in at over 200 tweets) for an #ESN newbie to dive into. These new mini decks distill the topic, the five featured questions and 7-10 of the expert answers provided by the weekly participants into a short and sweet deck on Slideshare.

Without further ado here is the first #ESNchat mini-deck – a recap of October 9th’s discussion on failing in your ESN.

 

Moving forward all mini decks will be archived on our Slideshare page, as well as along side the Storify archives on the main Topic Archive page. Have an idea for #ESNchat content that you’d like to share? Please let us know!

Join us every Thursday at 2pm ET on Twitter for #ESNchat – a weekly Twitter chat founded by Jeff Ross, and currently hosted by TheCR for those interested in Enterprise Social Networks (internal social networks for businesses).  The topics covered are primarily of interest to ESN community managers, but anyone with an interest in ESNs is welcome to participate.

Building Reputation: Becoming a Social Strategist

By

By Shannon DiGregorio, Relationship Manager at The Community Roundtable.

For many social media and community practitioners being viewed as an expert in something that everyone thinks they are great at (social media) can be a real challenge. Just because someone loves Instagram or has 500 friends on facebook doesn’t mean they truly understand that intricacies of managing a comprehensive social or community program. How do you build your reputation as a social strategist – a true expert on social media and community initiatives?

The role of the corporate social and/or community strategist is unique from that of a community manager although the two roles are often done by the same person in smaller organizations. Check out Rachel’s presentation below for an in-depth look at the social and community strategist roles, and how you can build a reputation as a knowledgeable and trusted social expert.
