While providing consulting support to my government clients is my primary focus, I'm also an experienced public speaker. My presentations focus on how organizations can integrate social media into their existing communications and knowledge management strategies, and how social media is fundamentally changing the way government operates.
My presentation style is NOT your run-of-the-mill PowerPoint presentation given by a consultant. I'm an energetic, self-deprecating, humorous, and personal speaker. I'd much rather have a real conversation with my audience instead of simply talking at them. I customize every presentation I give and adjust my focus on the fly depending on my audience.
Sample Speaking Topics Include:
- Social Media 101
- Starting Social Media at Your Organization
- Networking in a Social Media World
- Government 2.0 Basics
- Booz Allen's Enterprise 2.0 Platform: A Case Study
- Twenty Theses for Government 2.0
- And many others
