18. “Human social networks and
communities are both well established,
robust social structures that pre date
their online counterparts by a a
millennia. Humans naturally
gravitate to and desire the
interactions that these structures
allow. We want to belong”.
Dr Michael Wu

us back to the more human

41. Failing to embrace the internal
conversation is like putting a Morris
Minor engine in one of these…
…it wont work, it will ruin the experience
and you will be found out.
42. Don’t build talent communities…
…get your employees
involved in their own
communities, communities that
already exist – fish where the
fish are.
43. Talk to candidates over social
channels…
…stop ignoring them
and embrace the
conversation.
44. Stop advertising, start sourcing…
…avoid the chronic
inefficiencies of “driving
applicants” and improve your
candidate experience
45. Turn your recruiters into
community managers…
…forget traditional KPI’s – CV’s,
interviews, calls etc. Focus
instead on network/
community growth.

about the stories
that are told
about you – both
positive and
negative. You’ll be
judged by those
stories more than
anything you say
or write.”
