Bio
January 9th, 2008 |
I am the principal of Socialized, a consultancy that helps companies make effective use of social media in corporate communications, marketing and public relations.
I’m also the author of SocialCorp: Social Media Goes Corporate, a handbook designed to help corporate communicators and executives understand how to successfully adopt social business strategies in large companies. I’m available for speaking opportunities and book signings.
Previously, I was EVP of Emerging Media at Eastwick Communications, where I developed and implemented social media strategy and initiatives for companies like Seagate, Fujitsu, and Ustream.TV. Prior to that I have over a decade of Fortune 500 corporate communications leadership, which includes four years as the speechwriter to the CEO of Sun Microsystems, and three years as a director of internal and executive communications at Hewlett-Packard. I also have experience in print and broadcast news. I’m an inventor, and I hold several patents for bar code, smart card and portable data collection technology.
I live in Boulder Creek, in the Santa Cruz Mountains, which means I can get to the Silicon Valley in under an hour, but I’m far enough away to see deer in my backyard and stars at night.
Website looks great. Best of luck, old boy!
I liked the classy farewell on the Eastwick site as well.
