The rise of social media and other technology has changed not only how we do business but the very nature of work and how the workplace is designed. Technology has unleashed the power of social in new and powerful ways. This evolution has revealed that our traditional models for cultivating talent are insufficient.

It must also include social capital (the value that exists within relationships) if you are to capitalize on your organization’s aptitude for innovation and performance.

Learn six powerful strategies with 12 specific tactics for creating a work environment that fosters connection and grows social capital as means to fuel innovation, engagement and performance across your organization.
