Restoration Networking: Re-shaping Your Social Media for the Future of Business

Leaders in every industry are beginning to ask themselves: Is there a better way? Social media used to be one of many resources used to sell their products and services, but today its reach extends much further into the consumer landscape. With the rapidly expanding footprint of AI, it’s beginning to affect pretty much everything we do, in ways that we never imagined.

Mark Weinstein is a world renowned tech entrepreneur and social networking visionary who has been a part of the evolution of social media since its very beginning. He’s written a new book titled Restoring Our Sanity Online (Wiley, 2025) that details a proposed epic reboot of this looming presence in our lives. He also takes it a step further by challenging businesses to employ his concept of  “Restoration Networking,” a new path for social media and businesses which protects, respects and empowers users and customers.

Audiences are challenged to consider incorporating positive aspects of Conscious Capitalism in their strategies. When a business focuses on the best interests of everyone touched by their organization, the whole ecosystem benefits. The bottom line is that Conscious Capitalism (i.e., respecting customers, vendors, users, and employees as valued stakeholders), while highly effective on an uplifting, feel-good level, can also generate tremendous profits for practicing companies and more importantly regain and expand the trust of their customers.
