How do Social Media and Technology Impact Strategy Implementation?

Research has proven that 70% of strategic plans fail to achieve their results. Why? May organizations, lack the ability, knowledge and tools to communicate and implement the strategies down and across the organization. The constantly changing world of technology and social media has also changed the landscape in terms of how people communicate – both within and outside the organization.

Prescott, AZ, September 28, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Ahmed Darwish, former Cabinet Minister for the Government of Egypt, joins several other technology experts during World Strategy Week to tackle the subject of technology and social media’s impact on strategic communication. The panel discussion airs live from 9:00 – 10:30 AM Pacific on Thursday, November 6.

Darwish directed the design and development of Egypt’s e-government infrastructure. The work done by his team has been internationally recognized with Egypt’s Government electronic and web services ranking 23 out of 192 countries on the 2010 UN-PAN report.

Participating on the same panel discussion are Anthony Marshall, Global CEO and Director of IBM’s Institute for Business Value, and Joon Han, Business Strategist and Social Entrepreneur.

Marshall writes and lectures on the areas of disruptive innovation, digital strategy, and technology-enabled business models. He has been interviewed BFM radio Tech Talk and quoted in a BBC.com article on millennials.

Han is co-host of the highly acclaimed weekly podcast, Your Biz Rocks, helping entrepreneurs with down-to-earth business advice that's out of this world. A social entrepreneur, he is on the faculty of the University of San Diego's Online Marketing Strategies program. He founded Better San Diego, a strategic alignment company, recently retiring to focus on helping small businesses through his book "Get Ahead by Giving Back" and the accompanying world-class training event "Give Getters Rule!"

The premise of the panel, "Today's Hotbed: Social, Technology and Strategy," is to understand the impact of an open, always connected, massively networked, real-time world in which information is ubiquitous and instantly available, and to see it as not more of the same, but, indeed, as a fundamental paradigm shift.

The panelists, leading thinkers about social media, new technology and strategy, will address how the world of "social" is altering both:

The landscape which organizations must navigate to succeed - e.g. opportunities revealed and threats generated, strengths to seek and weaknesses to remedy.

The approach to take for strategic success - e.g. planning processes and execution approaches best suited to capitalize on the benefits of "social."
