Consultancy and Career
Presenter: Christopher S. Rollyson (www.rollyson.net)
LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, YouTube, Friendfeed: most executives have
barely heard of these Web 2.0 sites, yet they are changing the rules of
business. Consultants have a two-fold responsibility: to understand how

their effectiveness as advisors to clients. This groundbreaking presentation

use LinkedIn, Facebook and twitter to boost their competitiveness.

using Facebook and Twitter to increase the impact of business networking with
LinkedIn, including:

change the numbers of your business

create yours
