What is the purpose of social media and why does your organization have a social media presence? In this episode, Sam Toles of CiviSocial and I discuss this issue at length and make a powerful case for why every city and county manager should make sure their organization is doing social media correctly. Not only are there personal and professional benefits, but it can help improve employee morale and job satisfaction, retention, and keep your elected officials happy.

He walks listeners through the challenges and political gridlock leading up to the decision, as well as the long-term benefits that followed—including improved storm recovery and reliability through underground power lines.The conversation also covers the growing tension between public and private utilities, with Randy reflecting on the implications for other cities considering similar transitions.
