How digitally visible are you with your staff? In today’s episode, we explore the new era of leadership that’s been shaped by how we use technology – the social leader. Rob Liddiard, Co-founder and CEO of Yapster, share what you can do with technology to help you lead your team and scale your communication.
Founded in 2015, Yapster is a fully integrated mobile communications platform, designed for frontline colleagues who don’t have company email addresses.
