Tonight I was doing a search on Twitter to see who was talking about Lynchburg. You can follow that real time search here. That’s when I found this tweet:

I’ve known Ken Garren, President of Lynchburg College, (LC) for several years and actually had the privilege of attending his inaugural ball. I’ve seen him and his lovely wife Sheila dance before, but not quite like this. And I loved it! Evidently, the students loved it too, as you’ll hear from the applause at the end.

Take a couple of minutes and enjoy this video. Great job Ken, Sheila and LC staff for showing your human side and embracing social media.

How else might high impact leaders use social media to be real with people in their organizations? What have you seen that works well? And what has failed miserably?
