Notas del editor
- Turn communication into an interactive dialogueubiquitously accessible and scalable communication techniques.
- According to Garnter, “by year-end 2013, 50% of all companies will have been asked to produce material from social media websites for eDiscovery”
- An audience can be your secret weapon.A lot of businesses still spend big bucks to reach people. Every time they want to say something, they dip into their budgets, pull out a huge wad of cash, and place some ads. But this approach is both expensive and unreliable. As they say, you waste half of your ad budget—you just don’t know which half. Today’s smartest companies know better. Instead of going out to reach people, you want people to come to you. An audience returns often—on its own—to see what you have to say. This is the most receptive group of customers and potential customers you’ll ever have.
- The majority of people learn by example and often follow others, especially when it comes to participation* Wentling, T., Page, V., & Ardichvili, A. (2003). Motivation and barriers to participation in virtual knowledge-sharing communities of practice. Journal of Knowledge Management, 7(1), Retrieved from http://www.emeraldinsight.com/journals.htm?articleid=883796&show=abstract[edit]
- The pain of not teachng and providing structure is painful. According to Gartner, typical incidents include:Employees sharing too much information in public forums (46%)Loss or exposure of confidential information (41%) Increased exposure to litigation (37%). Article in the USA Today talking about how schools are trying to figure how to use social media in teaching. Forward thinking principals in Marin Country for example are showing how to provide structure „if you keep kids out, they create their own cultures in this space with no guidance from adults – and that is not responsible“---Be transparent (who you work for), never represent in a false or misleading way, post meaningful comments, never comment on legal matters, litigation, etc.
- Social media touches upon every department, every business process, every channel, every prospect / customer interaction, every investor, every supplier, in short, it touches the entire organization.
- milestonesProblems encountered. Elicit support and advice.Describe success / lesson’s learned.Share pictures and initiate online water cooler conversations. Lessons learned!
- Social media is a “conversation.” The tools and platform allow group members to communicate effectively and share information about themselves. All activities should be completed within the realm of social media guidelines and policies at your company.
