Attention Gen Y'ers and Millennials of Lakewood!
Ready, Set, Tweet!
Listening to citizens is a very important part of my job.
Citizens are my bosses. I have 52,136 bosses. Citizens provide feedback regarding our service
quality. They help identify emerging trends. They spot problems that are
difficult to see. All of which helps us
improve.
Thirty five percent of our citizens are between the ages of
20 and 39. This generation of citizens is very connected to their “universe” by
using social media. This generation takes
a “virtual” approach to place versus physical place. Thus, being available via social media is
just important, if not more important, than being in the same room.
For all of the above reasons, I am experimenting with a new
(to me) communication vehicle to make City Hall more accessible to Citizens.
On Tuesday, August 21
from 5:30-6:30 PM I will be at my keyboard, logged onto Twitter ready to
field questions and comments.
