Digital
communication tools are all around us: Facebook, YouTube, instant
messaging, LinkedIn, and Twitter to name just a few! Many of us use
these tools in our personal lives to interact with friends and family,
but what about at the office? Should they be integrated into how we
communicate at work? Share your thoughts with us in a discussion on
digital communication in the workplace, facilitated by Tori Garten,
Chief of New Media and Web Policy Branch, National Institutes of Allergy
and Infectious Diseases. Whether you love these tools or want to run
away from them, please join us for what is sure to be an interesting
discussion! When & Where: Please fill out this survey by December 23 to indicate if you would like to participate in the discussion, and your background on this topic. We are planning to hold the forum in mid-January. We will send a follow-up email the confirming time and location for those who are interested. Why: A great opportunity to share your ideas, and learn about digital communication from fellow government employees. As the next generation of leaders, how we use these tools and skills could change the way the government works! Also, check out this NASA PowerPoint for a broad overview of Generation Y and its perspective on communication. Questions? Please e-mail Ned (general@yglbethesda.org) if you have any questions. |
