Social Media in Leadership

G'day, I'm Gunnar!

I help partners and their clients to advance social as highest performing customer engagement channel. I am responsible for Hootsuite's Channel Partner strategy and execution across Asia Pacific. That includes all aspects of commercial and technical partnerships with Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), Agencies, System Integrators and Value Added Resellers (VARs).

Applying my corporate experience as external advisor, I am on a mission to help smart professionals to connect and engage with prospective clients using the power of social media like LinkedIn & Co. beyond just relying on word of mouth referrals.

I recognised a gap especially in leadership as many high level managers still touch social media as a "nice to have" There are great books and programs available for the "Social CEO" but not for middle management. That's what I'm building right now.
