After almost two years on thesocial media front, we’ve developed a good system to get timely and accurate publichealth messaging to our communities. We firmly believe that our presence on social mediasites has really enhanced our communication with the media and public.

Executive Director, Gary Edwards said it best in our 2010 Annual Report; that during tougheconomic times, SLVHD rose to the occasion and found innovative, cost effective ways tocommunicate with our community. “ - Vanna Livaditis, New Media Coordinator

Culture

Everyone in the organization (board

and staff) uses social media to

engage people to improve programs,

services, or reach communications

goals.

Loss of control over their branding and marketingmessages

Dealing with negative comments

Addressing personality versus organizational voice(trusting employees)

Make mistakes

Make senior staff too accessible

Privacy and security concerns

Handling Mistakes

“MisTweet” – A tweet intended to come froma personal account but sent out on anorganizational account by mistake.

x

This “MisTweet” by a Red Cross employee wasout for an hour before Wendy Harman got a callin the middle of the night.

Disaster recovery on the tweet ….

Apologized and share on their blog

Employee confessed on Twitter

Got picked up by mainstream media and blogs

•You can’t hide or not respond•Act quickly•Admit the mistake, stakeholders are forgiving•Use humor when appropriate•Build your network before you need it•Employees should use different Twitter apps forpersonal/organizational tweeting•If the mistake had been damaging to theorganization, a social media policy would havebeen critical if taking appropriate action

What are your takeaways about socialmedia mistakes from this story?

Reflection and Closing

What is one idea that you can put intopractice?What resources do you need to besuccessful?What are the challenges?What is one small step you can taketomorrow?

What can we learned about a try and fixapproach to social media from Kanye West?
