Mayo Clinic’s New Social Media Summit

Lee Aase visited the Get Social Health podcast to talk about the new format for the Mayo Clinic’s Social Media Summit scheduled for June 15-16, 2015 in Rochester, MN. Taking a cue from Mayo Clinic’s commitment to innovation, the Center for Social Media team, the Board of Advisers and event committee took an opportunity to re-imagine the conference. Switching from speakers on the stage to a very hands-on format, the 2015 Social Media Summit will offer case studies, workshops and collaborative problem solving.

“Don’t be an Egg-Head” & other social media lessons

When faced with the challenge of encouraging more members of the Australian Private Hospitals Association to utilize social media, Marketing Director Lisa Ramshaw went right to the top – to the CEOs. She faced many questions and concerns from the CEOs about hospitals participating in social media. Her response was to team up with some fellow marketers to get CEOs to try social media with a Twitter profile. To educate them, these social media evangelists went “old school” and wrote a book! A really little book titled “Don’t Be an Egg-Head” which explained the basics of having and using a Twitter account.

Our discussion also included Lisa’s recent recognition as a Mayo Clinic Silver Social Media Fellow status and the project that led to it. We also discussed healthcare marketing for the Australian Private Hospitals Association and some very effective marketing campaigns including; “The Elephant if the Room,” a mental health initiative.
