Be professional, kind, discreet,
authentic. Represent us well.
Remember that you can’t control it
once you hit “update.”
Testing the policies: Refining, Educating
Operational guidelines need to be specific
and include examples
Social Culture
Treats skepticism as a conversation starter, not
stopper
Leaders understand the power behind the tools
Leaders are open to reverse mentoring if needed
Describe results
Social is the cultural norm
Try it and fix it approach
Values learning
Transparency is not viewed as black and white
Social media policy is not just a piece of paper
How social is your
organization’s culture?
You want me
                            to start
                         Tweeting too?




From scarcity to abundance …
You have too much to do because you do too much
Simplify: Leverage your networks ..

organization do less of?
How and why you must value

transactions
Are your tweets about your organization or asking for something?
Do you just stream your web site content on Facebook?

Exploring the Relationship
                                Are you even listening to me?
