Social Business affects EVERYONE. “We now have the possibility to really share our DNA with the global community.” - Klaus Schwab, WEF

Social Business transforms organizations. "A social business can transform the brand story from talking points, testimonials, and on-brand visual assets to a collection of authentic stories that build strong connections across all constituencies. Personal stories from suppliers can be shared with end consumers to make a product more than a product. Stories from consumers can be circulated back into the business to help everyone in the chain see how they are impacting lives for the better." ~Jeff Dachis, The Dachis Group, Austin, TX.

That makes the Internet a more powerful driver of economic growth than mining, utilities or agriculture.” ~May 2011 REVOLUTION: The Internet is a more powerful driver of economic growth than mining, utilities or agriculture.
