This podcast episode is a little different than previous shows. Normally, I interview a guest from a brand or an independent thought leader. In honor of episode 100, it’s just me, Bernie Borges, sharing my thoughts and insights on the topic of social business, and previewing some exciting news about Social Business Engine.
You’ll hear my definition of a social business and learn all about our new Social Business Workshop for Business Development. Tune in to find out where we’re headed with our Social Business Engine channel.
