The theme for Pivot 2013 is The Total Digital Experience—and the Word of Mouth Marketing Association (WOMMA) is providing you with four sessions of digital expertise from leading professionals in the social industry.

After participating in Social Week New York 2012, WOMMA along with our hosts WCG and BRANDERATI designed an interactive agenda for 2013 including visual storytelling, building advocates, social impact on organizational change, and more.

The agenda is as follows:

1:45P.M.-2:45P.M.: Social impact on organizational change; the growing importance of employee networks; or understanding your employee worldview
