The document discusses building mentally healthy workplaces. It summarizes a project conducted by the Conference Board of Canada that examined perspectives of Canadian workers and front-line managers on mental health issues in the workplace. Key findings from the project include that 46% of respondents feel their employer promotes mental health, though views differ between occupational levels. While 81% of managers feel confident discussing mental health, only 29% of employees feel managers are knowledgeable about it. Most managers received little training on mental health. The document advocates for education to reduce stigma, creating a supportive culture, leadership, and training managers.

The session will provide guidelines on what CIOs and CISOs must consider for inclusion in their Social Media Governance and policies.

Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation (PM&E) is a social process that ensures stakeholder participation to monitor and evaluate program activities. It involves community members in monitoring activities and in the design and execution of evaluations. The key principles of PM&E are participation, learning through negotiation and flexibility.

The first study analyzed iCCM policies in 6 countries to understand how policy context, actors, and processes influence iCCM implementation. It found that policies often did not explicitly mention iCCM and were developed with technical staff but lacked engagement from key stakeholders. External funding was critical for policy development. The second study developed an iCCM costing and financing tool to help countries estimate costs and plan long-term financing. It was tested in Malawi and Senegal. The third study examined an iCCM monitoring improvement project in an unnamed country. Overall, the studies provide insights into real-

From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.

Breaking Silos To Break Bank: Shattering The Divide Between Search And SocialNavah Hopkins
At Mozcon 2024 I shared this deck on bridging the divide between search and social. We began by acknowledging that search-first marketers are used to different rules of engagement than social marketers. We also looked at how both channels treat creative, audiences, bidding/budgeting, and AI. We finished by going through how they can win together including UTM audits, harvesting comments from both to inform creative, and allowing for non-login forums to be part of your marketing strategy.

2. What we do
• Product & Service Marketing
• Policy & Program Marketing
• Social Marketing
• Sponsorship/Partnerships
• Organizational Branding
• Social Media/Digital Engagement

4. About Tanzania
• Tanzania is an extremely poor country. In 2012, Tanzania
ranked 152nd of 187 countries on the UN Human
Development Index.
• Tanzania performs somewhat better on the 2012 World
Economic Forum Gender Gap Index, ranking 46th of 135
countries but still well behind other African countries such as
South Africa (16th), Mozambique (23rd), Burundi (24th) and
Uganda (28th).
• Tanzania ranked 102nd of 176 on Transparency
International’s Corruption Perceptions Index. Its 35 score (out
of 100) was the highest ever, rising from 32 in 2007 and 27 in
2002.

19.
20.
21. How it all started
• Director of the Ethics Promotion Division in Tanzania’s
Office of the President read how social marketing used
in other countries to alter deeply-embedded societal
behaviors.
• She conjectured that techniques proven so effective in
changing attitudes and behaviours in many social and
health areas could be successfully applied to the
advancement of ethics in the public service.
22.
23. How it all started
• CIDA identified its Deployment for Democratic
Development (DDD) program as an appropriate aid
vehicle.
• In turn, the program’s executing agency, the Institute of
Public Administration of Canada (IPAC) selected Mary
Gusella former DM and the Centre of Excellence for
Public Sector Marketing (CEPSM), to provide social
marketing expertise to develop and implement the
program
24.
25. Why CEPSM ?
• CEPSM has extensive experience developing and
implementing social marketing campaigns in the public
sector and had done some projects internationally in
Europe, Asia, Australia and the USA
• As a result of our experience CEPSM received an offer
to work on a social marketing campaign to promote
ethics in the public service, in Tanzania.
• Long history internationally of social marketing programs
in developing countries - social and health areas,
however, no example of applying social marketing in the
advancement of ethics in the public service.
27. Purpose & Approach
Dual goals were to:
1. to enhance understanding and strengthen the capacity on the
theoretical and practical concepts of social marketing
2. to develop a social marketing strategy aimed at improving the
knowledge , beliefs and behaviours of public servants in the
area of ethical conduct
• Used an inclusive “learning by doing” approach including:
training from the Canadian experts
capacity development of the team
the preparation of a social marketing strategy
28. Introduction
• Advancement of ethics in Tanzania’s public
service had clear policy backing.
• Initially, ethics project conceived as modest
intervention, However, donor countries informed
Tanzanian Government that reform must
become more action-oriented & results-focused
29. Introduction
• Public service executives in developing
countries face major challenges.
• Multiple conflicting demands from donors
• Deadlines with turnarounds from byzantine
administrative processes
• Such problems pose significant barriers to
delivering results-focused projects with tight
timelines & budgets
30.
31.
32. Phase 1
• Provided intensive training to: Ethics Promotion &
Information Division, Education & Communications
Division in Office of the President, Tanzanian Public
Service College & Ethics Secretariat
• Developed terms of reference for local research firm and
identified a pilot ministry i.e. Ministry of Lands, Housing
and Human Settlements Development (MLHHSD)
• Civil society organizations approached concerning their
prospective participation
• Next mission would take place once tendering for
research firm & audience research completed.
33.
34.
35. Phase 2
• Unfortunately, events did not unfold as planned.
Serial obstacles dissipated the project’s initial
momentum. The client’s budget could not, as
anticipated, fund the local research consultants
• The client’s budget precluded engaging civil
society organizations in the process.
• At this juncture, the project appeared unlikely to
proceed at all, given the inability to secure
funding for its core activities.
36. Phase 2
• Sometimes, eureka moments are born of necessity. With
few if any alternatives, we devised a creative approach
that fit within project budgets and timelines: do it
yourself.
• Instead of hiring local consultants to conduct audience
research, we would train our Tanzanian colleagues how
to conduct the actual research… no mean task!
• Interestingly, one of the project’s original goals was to
incorporate a “learning-by-doing” approach into the
project. It was not suspected how literally this principle
would ultimately be applied.
37. Phase 2
• For 2 intense weeks we trained our client on how to
conduct surveys/focus groups & develop a questionnaire
which was translated into Swahili by the team
• During week 2, the Tanzanian team completed 315
employee questionnaires, 301 client surveys and held 4
focus groups. This was our baseline.
• Ministry (MLHHSD) clients were enthralled to be
consulted & eagerly participated. All questionnaires &
surveys accompanied us back to Ottawa for entry into
data compilation software.
38.
39.
40.
41.
42. Results of Baseline (Employees)
• 99 % of employees agreed that it was their responsibility
to adhere to the Public Service Code of Ethics &
Conduct;
• 63 % of employees stated they did not own a copy of the
code;
• Employees rated their knowledge of code at 3.3 out of 5
• 48 % of employees claimed to have seen unethical
conduct by other ministry officials; and
• 84 % of employees who had seen unethical conduct
had not reported it.
43. Employee Focus Groups
• Participants knowledgeable about ethics but limited knowledge of P
S Code of Ethics and Conduct;
• Employees afraid of being victimized if they report unethical conduct
and/or don't adhere to requests from superiors to act unethically;
• Managers concerned about being victimized if they impose
sanctions to employee’s unethical conduct;
• Key reasons for unethical conduct included: inadequate
training/working tools, low pay, external pressures (societal/peer/
managerial), staff shortage, working environment, agents of client
looking for unethical means to getting things done
44. Results of Baseline (Clients)
• 45 % of clients reported that they had been a victim of
unethical conduct at the ministry;
• 60 % of clients who had been a victim of unethical conduct did
not file a complaint;
• 40 % of clients unaware that reporting or complaints
mechanisms available to them;
• 90 % of clients felt unethical conduct adversely affected
ministry’s quality of service;
• 41 % dissatisfied with the ministry’s quality of service; and
• About 20 % felt that channels for reporting unethical
behavior were effective.
45. Phase 2 (cont’d)
• The strategy was presented by the Ethics Promotion
Division to 38 senior managers chaired by the
Permanent Secretary of Public Sector Management,
President’s Office (equivalent to DM) who strongly
endorsed the quality of the work and proposed
implementation roll-out.
• Our team was requested to return in less than a year to
assess the pilot project’s progress. The social marketing
team then geared into overdrive to finalize and
implement the strategy.
46. Phase 3: Developing the Social Marketing
Strategy
• 3 target groups selected: 1. Ministry
Commissioners, Directors and Assistant
Directors; 2. Ministry Officers, Assistant Officers
and Technicians 3. Ministry Clients
• For each audience, objectives, key messages,
communications channels & supporting activities
proposed
• Goals were set to influence knowledge, beliefs
and behaviors, supported by SMART objectives
47. Social Marketing Strategy Overview
• Strategy based on the insights gained from the baseline
research
• Developed in full collaboration with our Client and the
MLHHSD team
• Phased approach had been used:
o Short-term (6 months)
o Medium-term (1 year)
o Long-term (2-5 years)
• Focuses on 3 priority audiences that were seen as the
biggest opportunity for sustainable change to happen.
47
48. Overall Goals

o MLHHSD employees are familiar with & know that
they are supposed to adhere to PS Code of Ethics
and Conduct at all times
o MLHHSD clients know what channels available to
them for reporting unethical conduct

55. Positioning
“We want MLHHSD Commissioners, Directors and Assistant Directors
to see that as leaders and ethical conduct champions they have a
tremendous opportunity to enhance their dignity, integrity and
patriotism through behaving ethically and leveraging the reporting of
unethical conduct as a supervisory tool.
This will lead to improved service delivery, reputation, and status
for both themselves and their organization. This is much more
appealing than experiencing the short term benefits of unethical
conduct and subsequent exposure to risks including loss of status,
public shaming, job loss, criminalization, disgrace/disrespect, and
destruction of family reputation”

69. Positioning
“We want MLHHSD Clients to see that reporting unethical
conduct is a key way they can improve MLHHSD service
delivery since it is now taken very seriously and clearly acted
upon. This direct contribution to operational efficiencies is
far more important than saving a few minutes by not filing
a report on unethical conduct when it is encountered”.
“We want MLHHSD Clients to see that supporting MLHHSD
employees in acting ethically will help ensure that their hard
earned tax money is used more effectively and services
are delivered more efficiently. In contrast, supporting
unethical conduct to obtain short term individual benefits
actually slows down the process even more which will
directly affect them and cause further delays in the future”.

Tanzania Basic Facts:
Tanzania is in East African , it has many natural attractions including Zanzibar, Mount Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. Tanzania is a large country and its infrastructure isn't great Tanzanians have a very friendly reputation and other than petty theft, violent crime is quite rare. Location: Tanzania borders on the Indian Ocean, between Kenya and Mozambique, Area: 945,087 sq km, a little more than twice the size of California.Capital City: Dodoma (but the commercial capital and largest city is Dar es Salaam).Population: Around 39 million people live in Tanzania.Language: Swahili (official), English (official, primary language of commerce, administration, and higher education), Arabic (widely spoken in Zanzibar) and many local languages.Religion: Mainland - Christian 30%, Muslim 35%, and indigenous beliefs 35%.
The Maasai (Kenyan English: [maˈsaːɪ]) are a Nilotic ethnic group of semi-nomadic warrior tribe inhabiting southern Kenya and northern Tanzania. They are among the best known local populations due to their residence near the many game parks of the African Great Lakes, and their distinctive customs and dress.[3]. They are also educated in the official languages of Kenya and Tanzania, Swahili and English. The Maasai population has been reported as numbering 841,622 in Kenya in the 2009 census,[1] compared to 377,089 in the 1989 census.[4] many work as security guards, not corps of commissioners

Breaking New Ground
In Tanzania, the Public Leadership Code of Ethics was approved by Parliament in 1995 and the Code of Ethics and Conduct for the Public Service in 2005. Ethics concerns have been consistently advanced in national policy documents, such as the five-year national plans, Mkukuta I and II, and the Public Sector Reform Programme.5 Notwithstanding sustained efforts to advance ethics, from employee handbooks to sensitization initiatives to ethics training, as of 2009, the desired results remained elusive. Clearly, something completely different was required. Hence social marketing
The advancement of ethics in Tanzania’s public service had clear policy backing, as a package of initiatives to strengthen accountability and responsiveness to the public, a key result of the Public Sector Reform Program
Initially, the ethics project was conceived as a modest intervention, However, on day one of the project’s work donor countries informed the Tanzanian Government that reform must become more action-oriented & results-focused and make greater efforts to involve ministries, departments and agencies.
Public service executives in developing countries face challenges unknown to counterparts in developed world.
Multiple conflicting demands from donors juggled while constantly seeking external funding for activities that cannot be financed from the state budget.
Deadlines with turnarounds from byzantine administrative processes must be met as unexpected requests from Ministers pile up.
Such problems pose significant barriers to delivering results-focused projects with tight timelines and budgets

We wanted to make sure that they fully understand the principles of social marketing and focus much of our effort on training.
We were hoping to hire a local company to do the baseline research
the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Human Settlements Development (MLHHSD).
A follow-up mission to complete the data analysis and present the results to senior management was scheduled for later that year.
Keep in mind that there is a lot more but I am just providing you with a few key findings
Need to understand ethical breaches are part of the culture. Police stop my tourist bus and forced him to pay up.
Mention that we took a very disciplined social marketing approach . We used my social marketing training book but had to adapt it for Tanzania . My colleague Joanna had worked in Uganda previously so had a good idea of culture etc. and did the work on the adaptation.
Keep in mind that at this point the staff knew we were on an ethics project so had some impact on results.
Make choices that ensure that your target audience will see your product as offering more and greater benefits than the one they associate with their current behaviour. The product’s positioning should be thought of as the way the product is defined by consumers on important attributes, or rather the place the product occupies in the consumers’ minds relative to competing products.
One way to develop a positioning statement is to fill in the blanks to the phrase:
26. “I want my target audience to see________________________ (desired behaviour) as ______________________________________ (a phrase describing positive benefits of adopting the behaviour) and as more important and beneficial than __________________ the competing behaviour (play the devil’s advocate here)”.
Note we had different positioning for all 3 audiences
CSIT Client
Note they did some training before but it was a bit of hit and miss and not obligatory and we made changes to improve training
Some of you will think we were a bit hard but the government was very intent on getting corruption and ethical breechs out of the public service
A year later we went back and conducted another survey to see what impact we had using same questions
In January 2013, the Canadian advisors returned to support the pilot project evaluation. To obtain comparative data, the social marketing team replicated February 2012 baseline data collection exercise. Once again, completed employee questionnaires and client surveys returned with the advisors to Ottawa for data entry and analysis.
There are a lot more results but I have only 1 hour for presentation
Embrace originality: This case underscores how original, locally-conceived idea can, with the right support, make headway where conventional approaches have failed. Donors and governments in developing countries should consider how best to support originality and integrate local context in the design and delivery of development strategies.
Setbacks foster opportunity: With the project on life support, few options remained. Accordingly, the social marketing team decided to assume direct responsibility for conducting the audience research in the pilot ministry. Ultimately, this forced decision proved beneficial beyond anyone’s expectations, resulting in heightened ownership, accelerated momentum, team-building, improved job skills, enhanced quality control, increased planning certainty, lower cost, quicker delivery and avoidance of lengthy procurement processes.
Do-it-yourself approach may be advantageous under the right circumstances.
Create networks, include implementers: The downsides of working in functional silos are well known. For cross-cutting issues, which require active cooperation across different organizations, these silos can be impenetrable. Given the diversity of organizations involved, it was hardly surprising that Tanzania’s ethics mandated institutions had drawn criticism for poor coordination. This project created a social marketing team representing three ethics-mandated organizations, a communications division within the President’s Office and the pilot ministry. This latter addition proved invaluable as the pilot ministry representatives identified contextual issues and opportunities that could not have been envisioned by non-insiders. By actively involving implementers, the project not only benefited from a context-sensitive design, but established credibility, momentum and buy-in in advance of the pilot launch. It is likely that the project’s quick wins were, in part, attributable to the fact that the pilot ministry felt more like a contributor than a test subject.
Flexibility enhances aid effectiveness: On two occasions, the project had to be significantly restructured in response to changing circumstances. At the work-planning stage, it added the ministry pilot to address new donor requirements for more action- oriented, results-focused initiatives. Halfway through, the social marketing team decided to assume direct responsibility for conducting the data collection exercise at the pilot ministry instead of using local consultants. Both changes affected project design, time lines and cost. If CIDA had been less flexible in responding to shifting circumstances, this highly productive project would never have realized its potential.
Social marketing without the use of modern technology requires a complete rethink on how to implement tactics: Due to the low ownership rate of computers and laptops with internet access in Tanzania, the traditional web-based tactical approach had to be re- thought. While the mobile penetration rate in Tanzania is approaching 70%, the majority of these devices are not yet “smartphones” capable of effectively browsing the media- rich web. That being said, the primary research did reveal strong interest among clients and employees receiving ethics-related messages via SMS (a form of text messaging, which nearly any mobile device can do). However, this was not feasible in the short term due to budget constraints and the length of the procurement process required to find the right company to enable the back-end IT requirements. As a result, the we ended up primarily utilizing methods social marketers used when the internet was not in existence. Most social marketers today could not imagine executing a social marketing strategy without the support of technology and new media but our team adapted by using tactics such as face- to-face marketing and paper-based signage.
It is premature to speculate on the medium- to longer-term progress of this promising initiative.
Positively, Ms. Nyondo reports that the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Human Settlements Development will be completing construction of the new complaints office, relocated to the front of the Ministry’s main building, and finalizing their citizen charter in the coming months.
The next implementation phase of the social marketing strategy began and is having impact
