Near the end of the road…

After an intense travel schedule in the last couple of weeks that took me from Minnesota to Sun Valley, Idaho to Salt Lake City to Phoenix/Scottsdale to Minnesota to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to the Netherlands to London to Minneapolis to St. Louis and back to Minneapolis, I’m in Chicago’s O’Hare airport waiting for a flight to Green Bay, Wisconsin. Tomorrow I will be in Green Bay and Madison for breakfast and lunch presentations on social media.

I look forward to sharing some stories from the journey during the coming week. It’s an exciting time to be involved in social media, particularly in health care.

Reshape09

Here is the presentation I am offering at the Reshape09 summit in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.

Note to self: Next time you travel internationally and take a brief afternoon nap and therefore set you iPhone alarm to wake you in time for dinner, be sure when you reset the alarm for the next day that you change the designation from “p.m.” to “a.m.”

I overslept by about two hours this morning, but thankfully I had planned to get up four hours before my presentation, and thanks to Cisco (the guy, not the company) for the timely wake-up call.

WHPRMS Presentation

I’m in Milwaukee this morning for the Wisconsin Healthcare Public Relations and Marketing Society (WHPRMS) annual meeting. It’s exciting to be here presenting to a group to which I spoke three years ago, just when I had begun blogging.

When I was with the group at Green Lake in 2006, I wrote a few posts you can find here.

You also can follow the tweets from #WHPRMS and contribute to the discussion.

Here are my slides:

Twitter Health Care Case Study: Angie Anania

At our #MayoRagan09 health care social media summit yesterday, Angie Anania from HealthONE Presbyterian/St. Luke’s Medical Center in Denver told her story of using Twitter relating to a surgical procedure, and the collaboration she did with the local CBS affiliate. I asked if she would be willing to share her experience more broadly, so here it is, compliments of the Flip:

I think her point about collaborating with local media in a win-win application of social media tools makes lots of sense. What do you think? What other examples of this have you seen?

Health Care Social Media Summit Keynote

Here are the slides for my presentation on Monday, Oct. 5 at the Health Care Social Media Summit we’re hosting at Mayo Clinic’s campus in Scottsdale, Arizona. It’s been a pleasure working with Ragan Communications to develop the program, and I’m looking forward to presenting and to hearing from the other speakers. I’m sure we will hear about lots of great health care social programs and that it will provide inspiration.

With more than 130 slides in my one-hour presentation, I hope to create sensory overload while at the same time inspiring participants to both see the possibilities inherent in social media and to believe that it’s something they can do. By having the slides posted here, it will illustrate the value of Slideshare.net and also will enable participants to fully engage in the discussion without feeling a need to take notes compulsively. They can tweet updates as they hear interesting tidbits (as I recommended here), but can know that everything they’re seeing will be available for review at a more leisurely pace.

Update: Here’s the presentation that I failed to insert originally. Thanks @PhilBaumann for pointing that out:
