gosh I was just telling five-time Grammy
award-winning James Taylor if only you
use social media fully you use these
mobile tools you can really get your
name out there
that’s so case a little bit what social
na Mix is all about but at a five-second
level social Dominic’s is just word of
mouth on digital steroids or a lot of
you global folks in here it’s word of
mouth now goes to world of mouth deliver
presentations in 44 countries his social
anomic swert has been featured on 60
minutes in The Wall Street Journal and
used by the National Guard and NASA he
was voted the second most likeable
author in the world behind JK Rowling of
Harry Potter fan that’s pretty

it’s really about listening interacting
reacting and then selling and it’s also
about failing fast failing forward and
failing better so you can influence
others via what your digital stamp is
and that’s what digital leadership is
all about so figure out what you only do
the research what we discover is that
human beings we can’t multitask it’s
actually a misnomer we’re not a computer
parallel processing past our brains
actually switching tasks between which
both task was more important because
someone asked what’s the social play
what’s the mode what I’m telling you
here said hey I’m not suggesting we get
rid of face to face you cannot replace
face to face these tools are there and
design to augment face to face when time
and distance are an issue
here
alternate the lead there we go deleted
all the emails so then I sweated it out
for two or three days waiting for the
waiting for the world to end but we know
the story the world did not end eight
people thought it was important enough
to resend me the email our clients and
customers are telling us hey we love
what you’re doing here are you doing
more of that today in time all products
and services will be rated and also in
time you people will be rated awesome is
all about showing how awesome you are as
a person or as an organization by taking
the time to correct your flaws but the
more important piece is the digital
shadow or Umbra digi Tom I want to focus
on the opportunity that is out there all
around us if we’re listening do you care
enough about your client store your
volunteers store your partner’s story
how can we play a role in making your
story the greatest that it can be
digital leaders are made not born
