Lost in the Social Media Wilds

I’m happy today to be heading to the Hotel Mead in Wisconsin Rapids, WI to present at the Leadership Wisconsin (formerly WRLP) Alumni Summit. I’ll be discussing social media, looking at the nuts and bolts and then delving into the deeper issues around social media with a bunch of community leaders from around the state of Wisconsin.

As promised to attendees, here’s a list of resources discussed during the talk.
