My Converging Life:
Managing Your Personal and Professional Brand in Social Media
Many of us are already using social media tools to communicate with friends and colleagues. As our personal and professional lives blend together, where do we draw the line for ourselves? How can we leverage the power of social media for our personal and professional brand? And how can we harness the conversations that are happening about us and our issues – conversations that we don’t control – to build awareness for our brands and our work?
Join us for a personal conversation with Farra Trompeter, an expert in social media tools
and techniques, as we explore the power of social media.
Please plan to attend in person in Miami or connect on-line as we will be streaming
Farra’s presentation live for all Silver Knight Alums around the country to participate.
Thursday, March 11th 5:30 – 7:30 p.m.
United Way of Miami-Dade Ryder Board Room
