This panel brings together an esteemed group of social media pioneers within regulated industries, who have not only transformed their organization's approach to social media, but also successfully planned and executed numerous social media programs, while adhering to their respective industry regulations and limitations. The session will cover: * A general overview of some regulated industry regulations/ limitations * Championing organizational change, with respect to digital communication * Developing internal policies/guidelines for social media * Working with internal legal/regulatory departments for reviews and/or approvals * Developing social media strategies within highly conservative corporate cultures |
