Twitter ye not

There have been plenty of recessions in the past, but never one with as much technology and information at everyone’s fingertips as now. While some organisations fear the leaking of sensitive information or negative publicity, the more savvy companies are embracing new technologies. This doesn’t just mean having a Facebook page or being on Twitter. A plethora of options, from e-learning to intranets, webinars to video conferencing, can help organisations adapt to the changing business landscape and engage employees.
