Social technology gives leaders a vital new platform with which to connect their companies to the myriad stakeholders who have an interest in their well being.

Refuse to accept the belief that your professional relevance, career success or financial security turns on the next update on the latest technology. Sometimes it’s good to put the paddle down and just let the canoe glide.

Non-profits must become deeply engaged in the ways that their donor communities are using social technology.

Find the human in the technology. The currency marketers trade in has not changed even if the methods have. Emotion is what we exchange.

Technology is teaching us to be human again.

Social media is not about the exploitation of technology but service to community.
