    📱 Many charity leaders have been asking me about navigating social media lately - particularly with all the changes at X, the rise of Bluesky, and how to make the most of LinkedIn. They're also keen to explore other digital channels such as podcasting. The truth is, we're in a fascinating period of change for social media. But rather than seeing this as a challenge, I believe it's an opportunity for charity leaders to try new approaches and find fresh ways to connect with their audiences. One thing hasn't changed though - success isn't about which channel you're on, it's about understanding your audience and what you want them to do. ➡️ Read the full guide here: https://lnkd.in/eESq3E6z Would love to hear your thoughts. How are you approaching social media now? What's working for you? #Charities #CharityLeadership #SocialMedia
