Upcoming: IBM Social Collaboration Workshop
BCS-IBM Bermuda Agency, in partnership with IBM Business Partner, Necando Solutions, is hosting a Smart Analytics and Social Collaboration workshop on Wednesday, June 13th.
This interactive breakfast session, to be held at the Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute [BUEI] from 8:00am to 10:30am, will allow participants to learn about the benefits of social collaboration and how to apply these new tools to drive better business results.
Aaron Smith, General Manager of BCS, believes that, “the ways individuals and communities interact, form relationships, make decisions, accomplish work, and purchase goods are changing the way business is done. A social business recognizes that people do business with people and optimizes how people interact to accomplish organizational goals.
He adds that, “becoming a social business requires a long-term, strategic approach to business culture, executive leadership, and an effective corporate strategy. Businesses around the world have embraced this approach, and we want to show Bermuda’s businesses how they can too.”
According to a 2010 survey [McKinsey Global Survey 2010] of organizations already on the path to becoming a social business, 90% of respondents report measurable business benefits from Web 2.0 tools, including better access to knowledge, lower costs of doing business and higher revenues.
On hand at the workshop will be IBM Executive Brand Leader, Mark Harris, along with Necando Solutions executives. Participants will be treated to a wine tasting reception at Gosling’s the evening before the workshop.
