VoiceThread – a great social media collaboration tool

August 19th, 2010

I first used VoiceThread a number of years ago to capture the voices of citizens and residents on how they felt about poverty and homelessness in their community.

The VoiceThread was called Hidden in Plain Sight and was part of the York Region Alliance to End Homelessness campaign to raise awareness of poverty in local neighbourhoods.I’m exploring the option of using it again with a large scale community building initiative called Return to Rural .

My partner Mark and I (Mark Holmgren Consulting) are helping the Return to Rural organization develop their social media strategy. You can read more about Return to Rural in a previous post.

I see VoiceThread as an effective social media tool to continue sharing and collaborating with members between face to face meetings.

You can view it (larger screen) on my VoiceThread account by clicking on this link. Your invited to add a comment if you like.

The Social Non Profit – My Lens

A social non profit is attuned, responsive and adaptive to the complex factors affecting its constituents and communities. In a social non profit there is an alignment between staff, services, governance systems and online communications. Social non profits value learning and innovation and believe in working smarter by using social tech tools to enhance communication, collaboration and learning amongst staff, volunteers, partners and service users. These organizations believe that strategic use of social media empowers staff, improves services and strengthens governance practices.
