The Power has Shifted

✤ On-demand
✤ iTunes
✤ American Idol
✤ Reality TV


It’s about the people

✤ Relationships are made between people
✤ Personal brands lend equity to the organizational
brand
✤ Humanizing the organization and the mission is
key


Why is this all relevant to HR?

✤ Your Employerʼs HR Policy
- what does social media cost with
respect to worker productivity?
- what is the impact of a closed policy?
- what about harassment?
promotions? hiring? etc., etc.,

✤ Your Research Efforts
- source candidates
- staying competitive in the market


Why is this all relevant to HR?

✤ Your Recruitment Efforts
- low cost, rapid access to candidates
- demonstrated corp culture
- demonstrated corp transparency

✤ Your Professional Development Efforts
- continuing education
- mentor attainment, mentorship
-career opportunities


Policies and Plans
Have you considered Social Media?

Social Media Hazards

CAUTION


Productivity Myth?

✤ The cost of social media to worker productivity: $2.25 billion
- http://mashable.com/2009/10/26/social-media-productivity-cost/


Productivity Myth?

✤ “The analysis is seriously flawed.
Productivity is measured by dividing
output by input. There's no way you
can simply conduct a survey and make
any valid conclusions about the impact
on productivity.”


Productivity Myth?

✤ “So we know that staff spend a lot of time on these sites, but wonder
what percentage is work related content! To me it shows there is a
culture of Web 2.0 within the business but no tools to channel this! If
they had, then they could benefit on the conversations (i.e. someone
unhappy because their monitor keeps flickering (health & safety) or
somebody potentially slagging off a customer (reputation).”


Productivity Myth?

✤ “These numbers seem to ignore the
hidden benefits of employees using
social media while at work. They
assume that every minute (dollar)
spent on a social media site is a lost
dollar, which is not the case, given the
usefulness of those sites to business.”


Productivity Myth?


✤ ”Social networking websites allow many opportunities for employees
to stay current with the news in their field. With facts and news flying
around these sites constantly, the ability to gather information
becomes easier for those active in social media.”


Productivity Myth?

✤ ”I think more and more businesses
should implement the use of these
social networking sites for their
businesses in order to grown in a
constant changing world of
technology.”


Productivity...

✤ Don’t Ban Facebook
- http://marketingteaparty.com/2009/10/25/dont-ban-facebook/

“I’ve got no research to support this, but my
bet is that an employee that spends excessive
time on Facebook is an employee who:
• Isn’t happy in his/her job, or
• Isn’t challenged enough in his/her job, or
• Doesn’t have an appropriate workload, or
• Isn’t sufficiently interacting with his/her
boss and colleagues.”

Social recruiting?

Social Media Recruiting is "Social". (That's the hardest

social space


Recruiting...

“You have to use a "circular" approach. Building a good FB page, with links to
Twitter, which links to LinkedIn, YouTube, etc. is the way to go. That should all
drive them back to your career site, and create a buzz. That said, if you do all of
this, you need to be sure, your career site shows the same "we are WITH IT"
message as the peripheral sites.”

Listening to the New Owners of
Your Brand

✤ “Unlike all the networking sites, Twitter posts, and job board
forums where the disaffected go to vent their anger, Sidewiki
makes it possible to post these comments directly to your site.”
✤ Lets talk about this...it is not the tool/platform
... it’s a change in how we communicate and evaluate.

Still Feeling Like There’s Too
Much Noise?
“One in ﬁve internet users are now on
Twitter or another status update
service”
“Internet users who already use social
network sites such as MySpace,
Facebook or LinkedIn are likely to also
use Twitter: 35%, compared to 6% of
internet users who do not use such
social network sites.”

One tool, two very
different uses.
