Creative Networker Coaching People in using Social Media Christer is International Child Art Foundation Country Partner Sweden
I became recently a Certified Networker after being trained by Referrals for Life but this means nothing if not practised daily with a purpose.
Referrals for Life
Networking is for me every action for increasing an opportunity to help someone else to fulfill a need and it’s on a personal level. It can be economic, human or for the environment. Rotary is my first choice of network since they where first and is still the largest business network in the world with 1 200 000 members.
Rotary International
I am looking for synergies between people and the networks they belong to. Most people are involved in organizations as Rotary, BNI, Lion’s, Red Cross, Chambers of Commerce, UN, EU or ASEAN based on interests and/or regions of living.
Many organizations are religious or political which is great when they collaborate and are open for peoples needs without excluding anyone. Unfortunately is this not so common and it seems as they are driven from an ego perspective instead.
To really make a difference in the world and be able to help someone else is it my strong belief that Knowledge is the King,Values the Queen and Communication is their Child.
Take care of our children is where we have to start for creating a positive change this is why the International Child Art Foundation is so important. We are working with stimulating and nurturing children’s creativity and empathy since they are our future leaders.
To nurture creativity and develop empathy
Do you feel you have an impact on the organisation you are networking in or that you are only a brick in the game fulfilling someone else need?

If you feel and see something which you have passion for just go for it and follow your heart and act with Love.”

Niketo, Kerstin Eriksson for interesting discussions about new opportunities and collaboration.
New opportunities and collaborations in 2012
There are no limits and every day has a new opportunity. What do You dream about and do you want to join me on this amazing journey where there are no limits except our imagination?
It’s frustrating to talk about how to use new tools in Social media while I am spending several hours without working smarter. It’s great with links between Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google+ with help of a Publish Sync app. But this is not enough for keeping track of the flow and reply within fair time.
Here are some tools that I am using and testing for improved collaboration. The feeling of schizophrenia and that I have to clone myself by dividing time between LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Klout and now also Empire Avenue is something which have occupied my creative mind for a while.
I want to be a part of proactive discussions between the social media experts.
It’s also very important to know the customers needs for using Social media. There can be new opportunities but only if we communicate the benefits and provide with some good examples about how to work with at least the three most common tools as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter at the same time.
Yoono a quick overview of a tool which is very easy to start using…
Hootsuite is an excellent tool with several options for analyze and control. You can add apps. for following your top contributors etc. and create reports.
I joined Empire Avenue yesterday and have spent some hours to test how it works.
The purpose is to increase your network by buying and sell shares in people based on their interest and presence in social media. There is a chat and you can easily recommend and endorse people etc.
But the best is it has almost all of the common social media tools as LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter and they are reachable while networking.
My approach was to use intuition and creativity instead of thinking, reading and searching for how to do. This have paid off and I am honored to be listed on the EAv Hot Stocks for 12-27-11! Check it out:http://tinyurl.com/7qe8prt
I search for students and schools with students approx. 13-14 years who wants to collaborate with students in Sweden on a Grouply forum. The forum is for stimulating the childrens creativity and empathy and was created as an activity for The World Children’s Festival in Washington DC 17-19:th of June.
We are using Skype and virtual spaces might also be used for international and fun collaboration between the students. I have been working voluntary almost 2 years with lectures and workshops in creativity and social media.
Please contact me if you are interested and want to discuss how we can start up a creative exchange between the schools. All comments are appreciated.
