Voice from the Cubicle

Today I had the pleasure of participating in Steve Rubel's Social Media Tour. However, unbeknownest to Steve I planned on using the interview to launch the "Voice From the Cubicle" Podcast.

This didn't work out quite I had planned. For one, our voices got scrambled on my Skype recording so I had to edit in my questions afterward. However, in the end this means you have to listen to my terrible voice less and I got to cut out some silly Edelman-insider talk, so everyone wins. Also, I apologize for the poor sound quality.

Among the topics Steve and I discussed:

- Why, despite a growing acceptance among communicators of the importance of new media, so few people are actually engaged with the different tools

- How corporate bloggers can deal with the time constraints and accountability issues associated with blogging

- How company's should deal with unauthorized or inappropriate bloggers

I contend that the fact that I was able to produce this using free telephone service (Skype), free audio editing software (audacity) and a super cheap blog hoster where I am still on a free trial (TypePad) is proof that anyone can do this new media stuff. (Granted it is now 1:30 in the morning, but who needs sleep when you have so many great blogs to read)

So without further ado, here you go. You can:

Download the "Voice From the Cubicle" Podcast.mp3

and/or you can subscribe to my podcast feed with the url in the right column. Give me a little time and you will be able to simply subscribe on iTunes. Baby steps.

So, who's next?

If you want to discuss trends and issues developing in the field of employee engagement, please email me or just give me a ring at on Skype. My name is jtreem. Hope I hear from you soon.
