Social media – Stephen Davis

world’s largest independent PR firm, Edelman, in London and European online distribution
company, Real Wire.
According to Stephen:
● In order to become a leader on the internet, you should place yourself into the
position of being a real thought-provoker: express your opinions and visions, and
surely comment on what people say. First and foremost, you need to have a blog
with relevant content!
● The phenomenon of the social media is that you meet people from all over the
world. You may go to various conferences to increase your social sphere, try
speaking at different events, put your presentations on slide share, or ask
publications, if you can write articles, so that you could draw people towards
your causes and projects.

Steven Davis about the Communication on top Forum: “We have speakers all around the world
which is truly a global conference that gets me exited. Different countries have different
cultures. When you can get people together who are in the same industry and share the same
passion for discussions and comparison of different methodologies in communications, I think this
is fantastic!”
