- Understand that social media is not the equivalent of rocket science. It does involve technology, but it is only a type of tool. Tools can be used for good or evil.Don’t make developing a policy the highest priority on your professional agenda. You need to develop at least a general understanding of the principal tools first. This doesn’t mean you need to develop the competency of a power user.Think about how social media tools might be useful within your organization.Think about how social media tools might be used against your organization.Think about identifying internal and external subject matter experts on social media who can offer advice and support.Think about doing this BEFORE you are called on to give advice. If you wait until then, you are already too late.Think of gaining social media expertise as an opportunity to develop your strategic presence at work, then think about taking advantage of this golden opportunity to enhance your career.
- Why? It is part of the new way we communicate. Not everyone, but enough you can’t afford to ignore itThe major question that most companies must answer about this conversation is, how will you manage this dialogue, if you choose to manage it at all. Some companies choose not to. Being in social media is not the right choice for every organization.The choice your company faces is whether you want to do anything to proactively manage, direct or influence the conversation by taking part in that dialogue. My advice is that you should be, but that decision is not an appropriate one for every organization.HR professionals are also already engaged in the social media dialogue whether you know it or not., and frankly whether you like it or not. You face the same choices I just mentioned above.
