22. In the centralized structure,the social media department
functions at a senior level that reports to the CMO (Chief
Marketing Officer) or CEO and is responsible for all the social
media activations.
In the organic structure,no one person owns social media.
Instead, all employees represent the brand and work social
media into their roles.
In the hub and spoke(also called the coordinated) model, a
team of people who are cross-functionally-trained are ready to
address various social media needs.
The dandelion model is essentially a multi-layered hub and
spoke model.
The holistic model is currently the least used. It truly refers to a
structure within which all employees are empowered to use
social media, use social media, and do so according to the
company’s strategy.
