At Work with AIIM: 5 month update

Posted on by

Tomorrow (June 17, 2011 — considered to be the happiest day of the year by some), I will have been employed with AIIM for 5 months. Its been quite a rush of work so far. In my first 2 months at AIIM, I did not take a single weekend off as I was working on developing the Social Business Roadmap, which we released in March 2011. We hope that as this year continues, we see more and more businesses and organizations take something away from this whitepaper, as we see it as THE guide for those who wish to adopt social media into their organization to better connect with their community.

Since releasing the whitepaper, we have traveled and blogged in support of our research and are still supporting that with our participation at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference next week in Boston, MA. My boss, Director Systems of Engagement, Jesse Wilkins and I will be at the AIIM booth (#521) on the expo floor where we will be happy to talk with you about your ideas of Enterprise 2.0, Social Business, and what ever is coming next.

At AIIM we also are in the works of  TaskForce II headed up by Andrew McAfee. The father of Enterprise 2.0 and keynote at this 5th year of the #e2conf.  We are working to define the responsible use of social content with some brilliant minds. We last met in person in Boston back in April and we are continuing to develop our research and discussions. As you might know, the first AIIM TaskForce with Geoffrey Moore was a huge success in defining that we have moved from Systems of Records to Systems of Engagement. As such, my position at AIIM was identified and I am now working hard to fulfill my every growing task load. It been challenging at times, but its also very much something that requires the amount of energy I have and my experience.

Now that we have delivered on setting guidance on the roadmap, I have to major projects underway. One is that I am working on developing part of our new Social Business training offerings. I am working on a community management set of modules that I am very excited about and we will be releasing to our community members this summer. The second, is our Social Business Conference this September 8, 2011. This event is unique in that it is completely virtual and our cost is very affordable for our members and non-members at the price points of $85/$95 respectively. I challenge you to find a better deal anywhere else that offers the stellar lineup of speakers and content. I will also be speaking at this event, under the Governance track. We are offering three tracks for the best content and information under use cases, strategy, and governance.

As the event is less than three months away now, I have started a  series of blog post interviews of those who are presenting at the event, so far we have heard from:

… more to come with a new interview every Monday and Wednesday until the event is live on September 8, 2011.

Sign up now to register for this event. This event is for all levels of engagement of social media and social business. Whether you are new or an old pro there is something for you to hear. Additionally this is also for all target audiences from non-profits, to educators, to Government, to the fortune 500, to small business. We want you to attend, network, and share with us your stories.
