Social Media and the HR Professional: Make Meaningful Connections, Advance Your Career, and Leave Your Imprint

Social media is a powerful tool that has helped many savvy professionals establish a personal identity, build a network, and stand out in their industry. Now more than ever, HR pros cannot afford to sit on the social media sidelines. HR professionals from all walks of life can use social media for constructing their knowledge base, enhancing their sphere of influence, and building a network of awesome connections! But no one can build a meaningful presence in a few scattered posts. It requires consistent effort and a diverse set of strategies. By attending this presentation, attendees will learn useful tips to:

• Optimize their social media profiles, including Twitter, Linkedin, and Facebook,
• Help increase engagement for their posts,
• Grow their professional network, and
• Find the best people and companies to follow!
