Top 5 Tactics for Government

![Page 14: Social Media Public Sector: American U Presentation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54c626b94a795936588b45e7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Where are we now with social media?• In the “So What” Phase• Agencies using new mediums, struggle to
define what engagement actually means• Sharing and collaborating with resources• Is there such a thing as being too transparent?• Digital Divide• Broader acceptance that government does not
have all the answers, needs to collaborate across sectors for solutions.
• Impact of culture
