Chris Dancy's Social Media Workshops in Melbourne and Sydney have my highest recommendation.  I stopped all the busy-ness to attend and am so glad I did.  It was a real eye opener - we must get him back next year...Joseph Spiteri

Here's what others had to say:

"I really didn't know what to expect, now that I have been through this workshop, I feel overwhelmed, excited and scared to death."

"I signed up because my employer had an empty seat, I left knowing that my future was happening right in front of me and 2015 might as well be today."

"Chris brought to the class an "edu-tainment" that I have never witnessed.  We shared stories, compared notes and the was nothing but kimonos on the floor by the end of the day." 

How do you leverage social media to in your IT role?  Whether it is service desk, change management or incident management, social media Consumer, Creator or Curator what is your role?  If you're in Marketing, IT or even accounting you spend your entire day consuming, creating or combining information for others.

The social media revolution has unleashed a new first world problems collaboration.Next.  Your peers are located remotely, your customers are wildly banging at the gate and you are just trying to keep the lights on.

Social Media Essentials is a revolution and Chris's Workshops are a real eye opener.  Attendees have taken away from this class a new set of tools, views and real practices when it comes to not only changing your enterprise, but the start of enterprise.YOU!
