In India, new media usage is still to catch up. Mainly due to lack of awareness and clarity on benefits vis-a-vis challenges.
Peter Yorke, (a fellow communicator and my former group head at i-flex [www.iflexsolutions.com]) and I will be conducting a workshop on May 12, 2007 in Bangalore to help aspiring communicators understand trends and nuances in this domain.
Supported by St. Joseph’s College of Business Adminstration –Â where both Peter and I provide guidance in the areas of corporate communications and public relations, we hope to provide insight into this domain from our professional and personal experiences.
This workshop is also a testing ground for other areas we plan to share our views on.

Aniisu,
I’d be really interested to hear about this. I am running a two day workshop with Melcrum in the UK in June and September (http://www.melcrum.com/products/training_courses/uksmw/index.shtml) and I’d love to know what kind of questions you were asked and what kind of concerns were raised.

Our India communications summit is coming along. I’ll have to update you soon.
Thanks David.
Sure, will keep you posted.
From our experience, the awareness of new media is very low. We will be encouraging participants to try out new media in their organizations by starting small.
Cheers
Aniisu
