Social Media guidelines
Social media is rapidly becoming a regular part of our lives at home and work. Whether tweeting,
connecting on LinkedIn or updating facebook, these tools offer endless opportunities to build
relationships and create value. Below are a few tips to help you have fun, play smart and ensure what
you do and say online doesn’t take on a life of its own.
1
It’s a conversation, so talk like it is. This is a chance
to shape your personal brand. Share your opinions
Be yourself by using ‘I’ statements and be honest about your
stake in an issue and where you work.
2
If you find something interesting, share it and let
people know where you found it. It’s good online
Give credit etiquette and makes it much easier for others to pass
it on.
Share with care 3 Be aware of what you share and, if you think
something is inappropriate, politely question it. It’s
important that confidential information on clients
and colleagues remains private .
Add value 4 You get what you give. Others want to hear from you
-- so share lots, share often. If it will support others
personally or professionally, it’s worthwhile talking
about.
