This morning I put down some thoughts into Twitter about who may benefit from buying our book that we wrote at Adopt & Embrace on Microsoft Teams.

Creating a Community Managers Program
For the last two weeks, I’ve been head down tapping away on my keyboard creating a Community Managers Program for a client’s Learning and Development team.

(If […]

Last week I delivered a webinar for a public service organisation who requested a presentation to their Learning and Development teams on how to use social tools to create learning experiences.
