With interactive social media and video everywhere, everyone needs to feel they have a relationship with their leaders, and every brand needs leader personification for customers to relate. More meetings in your conference room won’t get to the truth as well as simply talking to people who interact with customers directly.

Needless to say, very little of it was easy.

The topic of social media came up and one dial-in caller lamented the fact that all Silicon Valley was producing was silly social media companies.

It’s really a magical component of Twitter to see public conversations but the lack of tools I believe discourages this. I often find somebody at a conference will say “I comment on your blog from time-to-time.” This can be at a conference, via an intro from a mutual friend or similar. Be subtle, be occasional.
