Holly — Thanks for making this program happen! We’ve been running year long “Social Media Boot Camps” this past year on Long Island, NY and in northern NJ. I’m curious to compare notes on the design of these programs, and how you create a model to take a whole organization several steps forward. It’s a powerful model, and I’d love to learn from your work and experience too.
