Being a member of ADM is not an Average Daily Membership, it is a great experience expansion
I have been involved with ADM for many years. ADM offers an ideal platform for Business and IT people to exchanging experiences constructively. Essentially, through ADM I have got to know new people who I now can ring to ask for their opinion over specific questions that I can not address myself. It is a great network of people willing to help.
ADM distinguishes itself from other network organizations by its accessibility. As far as I know, it is the only network organization for the ICT sector that is not selective in its invitations and opens its doors to both ICT and Business profiles. Member companies can send staff members from all levels of the organization and all business areas to the activities. This makes ADM a very wide platform where all kinds of subjects get a chance to be aired and where everyone, ICT suppliers as well as users both ICT and Business, has the opportunity to take an active part. We see that IT suppliers regularly introduce customers to ADM, who particularly give the working groups higher added value. These working groups make up an interesting forum where companies can create distinct profiles for themselves within very specific target areas. Obviously you have to participate actively: you only get out what you put in.
Being part of the Social Media work group has led me not only to a better understanding of the needs of the business users but also the opportunities that ICT can bring to these business units. Having shared information with others I have received much input in return.
