DO YOU THINK THAT THE NETWORK CREATED IS USEFUL?

- IT SHOULD BE MORE UPDATED, MORE CONSISTED

- PUBLIC SEMINARS OF PARTNERS SHOULD BE PUT INTO THE NETWORK

- LACK OF EMOTIONS INTO THE DIGITAL PLATFORM

- NOT ONLY DIGITAL NETWORKS BUT ALSO IN PRESENCE MEETINGS ONCE A YEAR: CREATING A COMMUNITY

NETWORK CAN BE IMPROVED. THINGS TO CHANGE:

- SKYPE MEETINGS WITH VIDEOCONFERENCE

- MOVIES ABOUT SUCCESSFUL STORIES

- CHAT SESSIONS

- MORE EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION IN THE NETWORK

- MEETINGS MORE INFORMAL TO DO IT MORE ATTRACTIVE

- TEAM SESSIONS

STRATEGIES TO INCREASE AND STRENGTHEN THE NETWORK

- FACEBOOK AND DIGITAL PLATFORMS: DIFFICULT TO GET THE PEOPLE INVOLVED, NOT VERY APPEAL, YOU HAVE TO MODERATE FACEBOOK AND HAVE TIME TO DO IT. INFORMATION NO CONSISTENTLY. MORE EFFICIENT USE OF FACEBOOK: SUCCESSFUL STORIES ABOUT RMA, USEFUL INFORMATION, REAL NEEDS

- LINKS IN ALREADY ESTABLISHED PROFESSIONAL PAGES

- SIMPLIFY THE NETWORK, LINK TO FACEBOOK, TWITTER…

- ALL THE DOCUMENT SHOULD BE PUT TOGETHER AVAILABLE FOR EVERYBODY

- USING A MAIL LIST- PRESENCE IN MASS MEDIA
