The RSA’s new online communities manager: introducing myself…

Hello RSA Fellows and others,

I thought I’d introduce myself to you all…

I’m the new online communities manager here at the RSA – my full title is ‘Senior Networks Manager – Online & International’.

It’s a new role here at the RSA – I’d love to hear your suggestions for possible improvements online.

Maybe you’ve spotted something good elsewhere that the RSA could perhaps be doing itself?

Also, I’ll be developing some online communities FAQs – so please share with me any problems you’ve encountered too. (On the more positive side, I’d love to hear about any examples of when the RSA’s social media has really helped you, as well).

There are also plans for a new RSA Fellowship blog - so keep an eye out for that soon.

I’ve had experience with online communities going over back over quite a number of years and will be working closely with members of Fellowship Council’s RSA digital engagement (RSAde) group to help Fellows to engage, network and make a difference using social media.

I’d encourage you to join me in the RSAde group – http://rsafellowship.com/group/digitalengagement – if you want to get more involved, lend a hand, or just keep track of developments in the online space.

Also, do please use your vote in the RSA’s Oct. 5th AGM – there are important resolutions to vote on (both from the RSA’s Trustees and from Fellows). This can quickly be done with an online proxy vote now. This page tells you how: http://www.thersa.org/about-us/governance

look forward to meeting many of you, over the coming months – both online and at RSA House.

Matthew Mezey

PS I am a relatively recent RSA Fellow myself – though RSA staff can’t also be Fellows, so I’ve changed that…
