Social Business Expertise
This research note is restricted to the personal use of miguelangel.lozano@cemex.com
For more information on how social projects are different, see Social Projects Require Project
Managers to Think Differently.
This research provides a framework that leaders of social initiatives can use to better position
themselves for success. It offers a way to assess where they are today with their programs and
suggests what they need to do to get to the next step. The survey conducted by Insight Consulting
Survey earlier in 2012 found that only 11% of companies using social networks incorporate them
into their overall strategies, which leaves some room for improvement.

The Figure 1 shows the five levels of social business program maturity and plots the progression of
program status for each.
Figure 1. Maturity Model for Social Business Programs
Groups form to set
the rules,
coordinate
activities, share
best practices and
respond to issues.
Pioneers dabble to
explore social
media
opportunities, and
sharing findings
and experiences
informally.
Any activity is
uncoordinated and
often underground.
A formalized
approach exists to
organize, integrate
and measure social
business impact.
Social becomes
less of a focused
program and is
subsumed into
mainline business
processes and
programs.
