it’s

• Social

11. You
won’t
be
alone
…
A
recent
survey
of
more
than
525
companies
indicated
that:
• 53%
have
intranet
blogs
• 52%
have
intranet
discussion
forums
• 51%
have
intranet
instant
messaging
• 49%
have
intranet
wikis
• Key
word:
INTRANET
–
Internal,
learn
to
talk
inside
first
11
12. How
do
you
spell
success?
Focus
on
tangible
metrics
–
not
adopEon
• User
adopEon
should
not
be
used
as
a
proxy
for
success.
Numbers
don’t
always
count!
• Ask
the
right
quesEons
-‐
don’t
be
broad.
– Pet
owners
–
stand
up
• Focusing
on
operaEonal
metrics
can
prompt
managers
to
use
social
sooware
and
encourage
their
employees
to
do
so
as
well.
– “I
decided
to
use
it
because
it
helps
me
do
my
job
–
not
because
someone
told
me
to
use
it.”
12
13. 2.
Decide
what
makes
sense
–
for
your
organizaEon
• You
don’t
have
to
have
it
all
...
or
do
it
all
–
at
least
not
all
at
once.
• Consider
promoEng
different
features
at
different
Emes
–
even
if
they
are
all
available.
• Tie
what
you
choose
to
do
with
your
organizaEonal
goals.
If
you
don’t,
don’t
expect
parEcipaEon.
• Figure
out
who
should
play.
– Social
networking
iniEaEves
driven
by
one
department
alone
are
more
likely
to
fail
than
those
led
by
a
team
from
mulEple
departments.
• Don’t
be
afraid
to
fail.
– Fail
Fast,
Fail
Cheap
13
14. Barriers
you
may
hear
–
because
I
have!
• “If
we
allow
any
user
to
contribute
content
(to
a
discussion
board
or
a
wiki
or
a
blog),
we
risk
exposing
inaccurate
informa:on.”
• “If
we
allow
people
to
post
anything
they
want
in
their
profiles
or
on
their
blogs,
they
may
talk
about
inappropriate
topics
or
about
other
people
or
about
informaEon
that
can’t
or
shouldn’t
be
universally
shared.”
• “I
don’t
want
to
share
what
I
know
in
a
blog
because
then
someone
might
take
my
idea
and
use
it
without
giving
me
any
credit.”
• “Status
updates
and
notes
will
be
used
for
trivial
purposes
and
provide
a
distrac:on
from
the
main
event:
work.”
14
15. …
and
given
some
recent
events,
there
may
be
some
reason
to
worry
about
inappropriate
content
Have
you
ever
posted
anything
online
about
yourself
that
you
regre[ed?
• 35%
of
everyone
surveyed
said
yes
• 54%
of
respondents
under
25
years
old
said
yes
• 32%
of
respondents
over
age
25
said
yes
Of
people
who
posted
something
online
that
they
regre[ed:
• 11%
said
it
didn't
cause
any
other
problems
• 3%
said
it
ruined
their
marriage
or
relaEonship
• 6%
said
it
caused
problems
at
work
or
home
• 15%
said
it
caused
problems,
but
they
were
able
to
remove
it.

Define
your

• Number
one
rule
inside

no
anonymous

• Explain

holders
why:
– What
do
you
care
about?
– Profile?
What

– Blogs?
What

Define
a

pilot
• Employee
engagement
is
a
key
success
factor
• Start
with
a
small
proof-‐of-‐concept
focused
on
a
specific
business
problem
– Don’t
“over-‐plan”
• Focus
on
usability,
look

• Engage

Blogs
• If
your
organizaEon
is
nervous
about
blogs,
consider
limi:ng
who
can
have
them
–
at
least
in
the
beginning.
• Include
internal
blogging
as
part
of
your
social
networking
policy
(have
fun,
be
smart)
– Looking
for
a
way
to
get
started:
check
out
Coca
Cola’s
– h[p://www.thecoca-‐colacompany.com/socialmedia/
• Create
specific
policies
for
bloggers
– Have
a
list
of
policies
regarding
blogging
to
ensure
that
trade
secrets
are
kept
secret
and
personal
lives
do
not
become
public.
– Policies
may
include
keeping
financial
informa:on
from
being
posted,
as
well
as
severe
consequences
for
anyone
using
the
blog
for
negaEve
publicity,
even
if
the
audience
is
only
internal.
• ExecuEve
blogs
should
be
authen:c.
• Allow
associates
to
comment
on
blogs
–
if
you
don’t,
it’s
not
a
blog
–
it’s
just
a
glorified
newsle[er.
• Don’t
allow
anonymous
comments
on
blogs
–
own
it!
• Keep
content
current
–
at
least
weekly
if
possible.
