“ NCFR uses the Carver Policy Model of governance, where board members and the executive director report in writing on organization policies for each monthly board meeting.  SharePoint allows us to post all the reports online and to utilize survey tools to gather input. Board members no longer have to search email inboxes for attachments.  Use of SharePoint for shared documents has reduced anxiety and stress and vastly improved board governance.”
“ Our last board meeting conference call took only 45 minutes.”

Numbers aren’t everything.
“ Participating in Social Media is more meaningful when you have a deeper understanding of anthropology and sociology and not just the social tools that facilitate interaction. This is about creating and cultivating relationships with people, online and in the real world, and these relationships are defined by mutual value and benefits.  Perhaps most importantly, the process of listening and observing will reveal the cultures of the very communities you may wish to engage.” Brian Solis PR 2.0 - Introducing The Conversation Prism http://www.briansolis.com/2008/08/introducing-conversation-prism.html
