Experiential Social Media Presentation Widget (and Keynotes, Panels)

Social Business Presentation WidgetThe Experiential Social Media Presentation Widget assists you to arrange a speaking engagement on experiential social media, social business, digital transformation or digital marketing. Just use the widget to tell me about your event, group, audience and goals. The widget will help us set up an exploratory call where we’ll discuss how to make your event a success. That’s all there is to it!

Keynotes generally are designed to address large audiences with “mega” topics and issues, and I may use slides or not. Mine always include recommendations that make key ideas actionable. Presentations usually feature slides and often focus on more defined topics. Although not described here, I moderate panels and serve as a panel expert, too.

Keynote: Nonprofits and Social Impact in the Experiential Age

  • Summary: The experiential age presents nonprofits, social impact groups and NGOs with new opportunities and threats. Donors and volunteers have generally become more episodic in their support while several new classes of competitors have emerged: “conscious capitalists,” social impact for-profit organizations, and other “multiple bottom line” firms. Moreover, donors and volunteers are more conscious of, and affected by, their experiences while interacting with organizations (as “customer experience” has swept firms and brands). New players use data analytics and fancy data visualization to communicate the impact donors and volunteers have in order to earn more support, and they earn more support from online tools and social media, further adding to their resilience.

However, CMOs can learn how to transition to their golden age in The Social Channel by seeing its true nature, a space in which they can create, build and reap rewards of their brand’s most powerful relationships, faster and cheaper than ever before.

They want to be treated as individuals. Organizations, however, shrink from this because executives want to keep costs low; they don’t understand how to be personal at scale.
