Thanks Steve, I’m pleased this stuff is being discussed elsewhere too. The point was raised that Likeminds was heavily attended by practitioners rather than organisations and businesses, so please do attend next time. We need people on the front line to get involved in these discussions.

Great summary for the non-attender. Really interesting stuff Gemma (love the location too!).
As a relative social `media` novice – the `media` word has always confused me somewhat, and I love that the word `communications` has been suggested. It makes it more about the people and the content, than the technology – which is right. One client I work with in particular has really emphasised the word communications in some of the recruitment assignments they have given me.
What a peculiar, but fulfilling thought, that the need for better corporate cohesion between HR/Marketing/IT etc in creating effective social communications policy was also prevelant in a couple of discussions at the The Recruitment Unconference that I was at last week. Our industry is also grappling how social media/comms can be best used in organisations with varying to sporadic internal engagement.
I have been told by those who went, I need to be at #LikeMinds next year, and your blog is further encouragement that I certainly should be there! (hopefully not so much of novice then…!)

[...] We kick off today with a couple of summaries from the fantastic #LikeMinds summit, which took place down in Exeter, England on Friday and Saturday last week. We Are Like Minds is a very interesting blend of business, culture, technology and marketing – all connected by (to use Mr Blanchard’s term) – Social Communications (we are ditching social media for now…). You can check out Olivier’s summary of the summit here. After much internal debate (and some nagging from @drewellis) I had to turn down an invite, which may in hindsight been a mistake – as it looks like all involved had a great time, evidenced by the enthusiasm of my friend Gemma Went’s summary of the conference here.
