Dozens of local businessmen and women participated in this month's Jewish Business Network event which featured a workshop on how to use Social Media to improve your business and / or Network. The workshop was delivered by Boston Social Media Club founder Todd Van Hoosear who shared strategy and tips on how to maximize the use of Social Media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Blogs to develop and further your own business.
The evening began with some short remarks on the Jewish approach to Business and on how Judaism believes in engaging the world around us rather than abstaining from it, but at the same time seeking ways to give meaning, insight, balance, and purpose to whatever we do. This is especially true in business where acting in an ethical manner, giving charity, and helping others are different ways where specifically through our engagement with the world around us we can add purpose and spirituality to not only our own lives but to the very business and work which we are doing.
We would like to thank Ed Brookmyer (of Unique Idea Inc. http://www.unique-idea.com/) who arranged the speaker and also sponsored this JBN event.
