#socialmedia Q3: Do we need to change the skills we recruit for? [the $1MM Q]
one of the most powerful forms of self-awareness is playing back what you do for you to see (more than feedback) #socialmedia
more on Q2: enabling by 4) preparing for online dialogue (negative, too); 5) guide w/ process; 6) share vision/objectives #socialmedia
@SaintJer how about providing coaching? = shared vision #socialmedia
@BethHarte should train ppl on using tools effectively #socialmedia
RT @wvpmc: Q2 a plan that gives guidance to the process + that is shared with SM employees #socialmedia [excellent!]
RT @SaintJer: I think its important to empower them as well. Guidelines on what you want to see, guides on successful use #socialmedia
@MKMartin enabling = educating and taining #socialmedia also choosing a cross section @ckieff comment about whole co. represented
Great responses! Now Q2: How can you enable employees? We said - training - tools, brand, communications #socialmedia what else?
RT @tamadear: Q1: I say go simple: 1. ask for volunteers 2. ask for rec's. 1 gets you the willing, 2 gets you the good. #socialmedia
Before we move on to Q2 - should every employee passionate about SM be seen as a representative of the organization? #socialmedia
we also have 4) checking LinkedIn; 5) building internal networks (allows to see who is passionate and does it) #socialmedia
RT @BethHarte: think becoming social won't happen if you aren't a social co. Some cos LOVE their customers & it works for them #socialmedia
so far 1) passion; 2) opportunity (i.e., front line/customer contact); 3) internal collaboration/chats #socialmedia what else?
RT @MackCollier: I think anyone that enjoys interacting with customers would be a good candidate for SM #socialmedia [indeed customer care]
@Marc_Meyer I would start with those who are offering to do speaking, interviews, and articles on behalf of the company #socialmedia
