"Strategic Use of Social Media in the Corporation"

Many companies are investing a lot of time and money into social media, using the platform for training, recruiting, developing capabilities and establishing internal networks for knowledge sharing, among other functions. However, measuring the financial benefit of such strategies is often a challenge. During this panel discussion, Todd Maycunich, vice president of Media & Analytics for TMP Worldwide, will join Jim Lichtenberg, program director of The Conference Board, and Karl Sanchack, acting director for Innovation with Lockheed Martin Corporation, in presenting two case studies on organizations that have successfully measured the ROI of their social network initiatives.

"HR and the Social Media Revolution"

Social media and social networks have the power to revolutionize how HR performs its function. Not only does it give HR executives a global reach and help them stay connected with current and former employees, but it can also help with critical organizational functions such as empowering employees to respond to the needs of the customer and supporting and fostering innovation. In addition, social media can enhance the most important HR functions. During this keynote address, Louis Vong, vice president of Digital Strategy for TMP Worldwide, will share his perspective on social networks and how they are used in his organization.

Attendees of these two sessions will also learn about leveraging social networks to benefit their entire organizations; implementing and managing social networks to spur innovation and knowledge sharing; using social media to increase employee engagement and bolster employer branding; and managing the legal implications of social media in the workplace.

HR and training & development professionals, hiring managers and executives interested in learning how today's leading organizations are tapping into the power of social networks and managing the risks associated with this important communication channel are encouraged to attend these educational sessions.
