Cybersafety Awareness (with Barry Lee Cummings)

In this episode of Shift - Getting out of your comfort zone! - I sit down with Barry Lee Cummings - Digital Strategist. We discuss how his team are working to prevent cyberbullying and educating the youth, parents, and the community about creating responsible and inspiring online communications.    About Barry: Barry Lee Cummings is a sought after Speaker, Lecturer, Trainer and Digital Strategist who has been helping companies in the Middle East make the most of their Digital Presence.   Barry's experience with the corporate world in the Middle East keeps him at the cutting edge of the digital environment we now operate in. Having been involved in Digital Communications for over 10 years, he was frequently involved in conversations with parents who felt overwhelmed at the widening communications gap in technology with their children.   Parents in the Middle East and globally are struggling to keep up with the rapid pace of technology, and constantly emerging social networking platforms. Online and mobile misuse is a growing problem and one which will have a profound effect on our children, young people and society as a whole.   Barry and the team at Beat the Cyber Bully, led by Youth Speaker and Thought Leader Wayne Denner can help bridge the digital divide.    Website: www.beatthecyberbully.ae  Twitter: @CyberSafetyUAE   About your host:  Elena Agaragimova is the co-founder of Bessern (https://www.bessern.co/) 👉 We help people in corporations 🧑‍💼 to be more resilient and equipped with the skills that matters to thrive and be at their best at work.
