10. “ If you can't trust your employees, you have one of two problems: You are hiring the wrong people or you are not properly training the people you hire.” B.L. Ochman - Managing Director of Emerging Media at Proof Integrated Communications http://adage.com/digitalnext/article?article_id=142701
12. “ An employee wasting time on social media is a performance problem. Don’t blame it on social media. Productive employees are too busy with work to spend lots of time in social media having personal conversations. Instead, they use social media as a means to get their work done.” Carol Rozewell – VP & Distinguished Analyst at Gartner, Inc. http://blogs.gartner.com/carol_rozwell/2009/10/25/resisting-social-media-is-futile/
14. How can companies keep employees from doing stupid things online? “ The same way it can keep employees from doing stupid things on email & the phone. Give them guidelines and resources. Have an online communications policy that follows standard communications policies and trust them to do the right thing.” http://www.searchenginejournal.com/why-employees-need-social-media-guidelines/12588/ Scott Monty, Head of Social Media at Ford Motor Company
21. “ Using social media for employment branding allows you to meet potential candidates on their territory and engage in richer, more meaningful dialogue with them – and because social media is a conversation, people are a lot more likely to find you. http://www.brandfortalent.com/blog/ Why? Because they’re actually looking for you . They want to talk to you – so if you follow the rules of good conversation, your labor market will actually seek you out.”
