In September I’m delighted to be heading to Northern Ireland for the first time to speak at a conference about public sector social media.

It’s taking place on Wednesday, 23 September at The Odyssey Complex in Belfast.

I’ll be doing a new presentation focussing on “Projecting and protecting your organisation’s reputation and message online“, covering topics including

• What are the risks involved in real time, online engagement and how to manage them
• Establishing protocols for social media use for brand communication to your members, executive team and staff
• Using online tools to find out valuable insights into your customers/ audiences
• Measuring the impact of your online communications activities

Other speakers on the day will include Niall McKeown (Ion Online Marketing), Alex Butler (COI) and Gareth Dunlop (Tibus).

I’m particularly looking forward to this, partly because I’ve never been to Belfast before, but also because I’ve not met or heard the other speakers before and am sure I’ll learn a lot from them as well as meeting delegates.
