On Monday, November 24, 2008, the High-Tech Communicators' Exchange is hosting another great speaker session titled Crowd Sourcing: Using mass collaboration to inject creativity and innovation into your organization.
Join us to hear Monica Hamburg, a Vancouver-based writer and social media consultant/evangelist, deliver a lively presentation with real-life, intriguing examples of Crowdsourcing in action.
According to Monica, no one business can employ staff who, even collectively, possess every possible skill or experience. The public, however, is filled with experts in all fields and disciplines.
