Details

In the past two years, 77% of government agencies have seen a rise in constituent engagement, and many are feeling the pressure to evolve their social media strategies. With our new benchmark study revealing that this spike in engagement has fueled interest at the senior leadership level, it’s clear that 2021 is the year of momentum in making social media a strategic asset.

In this webinar, we’ll share key findings from our 2021 Government Benchmark Report, created in collaboration with GovLoop and based on a survey of almost 300 government officials. We’ll hear from Andrew Cassidy, director of social media for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, on how the MBTA is leveraging social as a strategic asset. And we’ll demonstrate how your agency can start taking the social advantage today.

What you'll learn:

  • How to address a rise in constituent engagement and demand

  • How the MBTA has leveraged social media as a strategic asset

  • Social media’s role at the intersection of communications, community engagement, and customer service.
