 * Social Change In An Age of Social Networks: **
 * What Changemakers and Philanthropists Need to Know To Survive and Thrive**

All around us, we hear more and more about the connectedness of our world. Nonprofits and the philanthropists that support them are tapping the power of connection by forming collaborations, alliances, and networks to address complex challenges and expand their organizations’ impact. Thriving in the 21st century and in the new economic reality goes beyond simply applying social media tools like Facebook or Twitter and requires a mindset where openness and authenticity are essential. Nonprofits using social media tools and practices in their strategy may discover that they need to refine their practices with reliable and measurable data from their social media efforts. This process can seem daunting in an age when information comes at us from every direction. How can we move from keeping our head above water to thriving with sustainable practices?

Internationally acclaimed Master Trainer and author, Beth Kanter, will help your organization learn how to implement a successful strategy on a limited budget. Based on her popular Networked Nonprofit books, this basic workshop will help you learn how to:


 * Map your networks, develop a strategy that fits your capacity to implement, and best practices for Twitter.
 * Use assessment tools to gauge your current level of social media practice and identify areas for improvement.
 * Use time-saving tips to make your social media more effective
